You need to start the certificate import wizard. I think its OK to do
this using MSIE. If so then convert the root CA to DER format and with
MSIE open select Tools->Internet Options->Content->Certificates, you may
have an option in IIS to open this dialog box too.

Anyway from the box click on Import...

Select the file you want to import (the CA certificate in DER format).

When you hit Next you'll have an option saying "Place Certificates in
the following store", select that and click on Browse.

Its the dialog box that then appears that has the "show physical stores"
checkbox. The follow the instructions above...

If it works then your CA name should appear after the line in s_client
saying:
