Great explanation, thanks! Also from how I had it explained to me... when a new CA emerges, they sort of 'earn their spurs' by having other CA's sign their certs.
Is openssl and NSS the main to preferred methods to open an SSL connection?
Lastly, I know revocation checking is done with either a CRL check or the OCSP protocol, are these built into openssl or nss?

I was trying to enable SSL cert on WebLogic 10.3 (CentOS),
I don't have a third party Certificate Authority(C.A) to get the .csr file certified.
Is there an alternate way that replaces the step sending .csr file to CA ?
