Hello,

i explored this article:

My questions are about using openssl to generate client-side certificate for using in SSL tunnel

1. can it be self-signed root certificate?
2. what options of openssl must i use so that Internet Explorer could import it? 3. if no client certificate is used, how SSL handshake happens? what certificate/private ey is used on the client side?

1) use you can have a self-signed root certificate and use it to sign your client certificate . 2) I think you can use these link for generating self signed root and your client certificate .
