if the client pops up this request you won't connect.
It's a "bug"... flash player won't connect even if you answer yes to the
request.

How to fix this ?

in order to use self signed certificates you have to manually install on
your client OS the CA certificate file you generated.
(in windows just double click on the ca.crt file and answer yes 2-3 times).

This will make your browser trust any certificate generated by the CA
(you) without any further request.

When you will finish testing and you want to buy a "regular" certificate
remember that your Cert. Auth has to be in the "trusted CA list" of your
clients...
so you won't have any problem with verisign (for example), you may have
some problems with less known certificates authorities.
