</div></div>Most distros' apache ssl package comes with some self signed certs already,<br>
did they work ok for you?<br>
<br>
Could you give an text dump of your cert using openssl:<br>
<br>
openssl req -noout -text -in cert.csr<br>
<br>
This looks a bit strange in the packet dump you posted above:<br>
