Certificate is standardized. You can generate your own if you like. But if you want
people to recognize you and not complain, you certificate should be signed by a
recognized CA.
Why would a Web server be "supported" or "unsupported" by a CA? I thought it should be
the other way around - a Web server can support SSL certificates or not support them.
Nix.
