Hi,
Currently i'm running a private (or local) CA.  i use the private CA to 
sign client-side certs.  In addition, the cert of the server that i run my 
node.js program on is also signed by my private CA.

To wit, i've the following:

---------------------------------------------
var proxyOptions =
  {
    key:  fs.readFileSync('server.key'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('server.cert'),
    ca:   fs.readFileSync('CA.cert'),
    requestCert: true,
    ...
  };

https.createServer
  (
    proxyOptions,
    function(req,res)
    ...
---------------------------------------------

wherein the server.cert is signed by the private CA whose cert is CA.cert.

A quick question: if i replace the server.[key|cert] with key & cert signed 
by some well known root CA (e.g., VeriSign), will that have any impact on 
the existing client-side cert authentication?   My guess is no since the 
client-side certs are signed by the private CA whose cert is still in the 
proxyOptions.   Am i right?

Thanks.
