You can get a cert from http://www.startssl.com/?app=1 for free
Basic as far as cert validation.

"
The program 'keytool' can be found in the following packages:
 * gcj-4.6-jre-headless
 * gcj-4.7-jre-headless
 * openjdk-7-jre-headless
 * openjdk-6-jre-headless
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
"

to remove: s/*Import*/*Remove*/ </guess>

   1. Sign into the Console as a Server Administrator.
   2. Go to *Settings > Security > Keys*.
   3. Click `*Remove` Keystore*.
