That makes good sense actually..

Just to sum it up and make sure that I have understood it correctly:

Add CA2 and CA3 public certificates to the apache server configuration,
Have the CA1(root ca) installed on client side.

I am using apache 2.x version and reading the SSL config part of it I
never saw anything about configurating certs as in my case with CA2
and CA3.. Rechecking again now i could confirm this.

Can anybody point me to the right direction regarding this, a guide maybe?

Thanks again,
Yildirim
