I just setup SSL on a test webserver using IIS 5.0 running W2k SP4. Whenever
I browse the site in IE, I get a Security alert stating

"The security certificate was issued by a company that you have not chosen
to trust. View the certificate to determine whether you want to trust the
certifying authority."

I tried importing the certificate to clear the message, but was unsuccesful.

Hi,

Install CA server certificate on the client... You can get it on CA server.
Open Web Interface and go to Download a CA certificate, certificate chain or
CRL. Here click on Download CA certificate. Save the file and transfer it on
the client. Double click on it and follow the wizard. Default values should
be OK.

Once you install it, all the certificates issued on this CA will be trusted.
