Root certs from private CAs

  1. Any chance of installing a root cert from a private CA for use on a hosting account? I want to connect to some SQL servers using XML web services, but I want to use SSL for the session. The SQL servers don't have private root server certs signed by a private root CA. SSL won't be possible between my asp.net application and the SQL servers without the private root cert on the web server.

    Thanks,
    Vince

    Vince,

    Unfortunately, your request cannot be granted.

    You should get a public cert on your SQL server.

  3. It was worth a shot... but I didn't expect such a ridiculous request ot be granted.

    This is just development. When and if it goes production I'll spring for the cert or encrypt internal to the app.
