I've been trying to create a proper cert file and so far I've been unable to do so.  I 
followed the procedures in mod_ssl.org and 
that produces a version 3 cert file which to me appears to have the proper goodies in 
it.  However I have to admit that I'm too 
new at this time to be able to tell.  I've also looked for documentation and so far I 
have not found it.  

openssl s_server and openssl-0.9.4/demos/ssl/serv both will use for instance the 
server.pem file found in openssl-0.9.4/apps 
abd openssl x509 reports this as a type 1 cert file.  When I try to create my own cert 
file it shows up as a type 3 and neither 
s_server nor serv will use it.

Clearly I'm missing some steps.  If anyone can point me in the proper direction I will 
really appreciate it.

Finally - I'm interested in what documentation actually does exist.  I will be happy 
to pitch in and start to compile some proper 
documentation on this beast if people are willing to feed me some details.  So far 
what I've seen is sadly lacking and 
documentation inside the code is _sadly_ almost non-existant.

Thanks.
