I think this is correct, you tested your CA intermediate certificate ... because of this: > SSL server : No > SSL server CA : Yes I get the same with my CA by the way, your CA certificates have a very long validity, which key length did you use? openssl verify -x509_strict -CAfile concatCA.pem -purpose sslserver ssl.pem concatCA.pem is just this ( cat cacert/root_ca.pem; cat cacert/host_ca.pem ) > concatCA.pem ssl.pem is signed with the intermediate cert cacert/host_ca.pem and is used for your Webserver ... will give you just ok.
