I hope anyone can help me creating 'universal test certificate', if possible
to do that. I'm implementing small web server program, that would support
SSL connections. Since users will need server-side certificate to be able to
use and test server, I'd like to provide them such demo certificate. Seems
that it's big pain to obtain proper (and valid) certificate from some known
authority, and I thought by using some local NT4 server with certsrv
installed, I could export private/public pair, and they could easily import
and use it locally, for testing. Of course, it would be valid only for short
period of time.

Is this possible? How?

Thanks,
Kreso
