now for some very OFF TOPIC HELP, any more than this needs to be directed 
to a [open]ssl group, or consulting comapany (shameless plug)

for windows of u*nx?

I reccommend the openssl utility.

windows: http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe 
 install everything so you dont have questions.

redhat7.3: ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/updates/7.3/en/os/i386/openssl-0.9.6b-28.i386.rpm

commands to read about:

openssl
ca
req
x509

simply put:

you need to make a cert request object.
you need to generate a public / private key pair
you need to have your cert req signed (in your case self signed)

typically you will keep things stored in PEM format.
windows like PEM format with a ".crt" extension

this should be enough information to rtfm easily.

man openssl
man x509
man req
man ca
