Anyone there have any information on generation of client certificates with openssl? I 
can generate them (albeit only for Netscrape at the moment - IE doesn't seem to be 
playing ball) but Netscape won't verify them claiming it's not certified for email.

What am I doing wrong? I've read the FAQ and the linked pages from it, but I was 
looking for a semi-technical (i.e. more readable than the RFC's) introduction to 
certificates and (specifically) the way they're integrated into browsers..

On a related note, why can't I as the CA generate both public and private keys and 
then install them both in a browser?

Thanks,

Kevin
