You can tell IE that you "trust" the self-signed certificate by importing it
into your trusted certificates list.

Subject: [cinjug-users] Apache/Tomcat web server certificates
Hello all,
I am setting up an Apache/Tomcat web server running on
Mandrake. I have a standard web site set up. I would
like to add a password protected portion to the
website for family use. As this portion would have
personal pictures and information, I would like to use
SSL to encrypt the username/password transaction.
Would it be possible to set this up without having to
pay for a certificate from verisign or something
similar?
I think I read somewhere that you can create your own
certificate and that the only drawback is that a
dialog will pop up asking the user if the certificate
is trusted or not.
How does one go about this? links and answers very
much appreicated.
Thanks,
-Jason
