Author How to generate a temporary cert ?

I need a SSL certificate from a non-trusted CA for testing purposes.
After processing steps on IIS to get the .csr generated, which tool can I
use to process such .csr and get a .cer ?
Someone a while back told me about an IIS resource kit tool that could do
this, but I can't remember.

You can install certificate services and generate your own certificate.
On 2000 it's pretty easy, never tried on 2003

That's correct: SelfSSL.

SelfSSL is perfect for this purpose.
