title: self-signed certificate issue
body: <p>I am doing self-signing certificate in my test environment. Here is more details about what I am doing.</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://www.hanselman.com/blog/SigningPowerShellScripts.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.hanselman.com/blog/SigningPowerShellScripts.aspx</a></p>
  
  <p>My brief steps are (the purpose is to establish trust connection between computer C and computer A based on certificate),</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Making computer A a root CA by using makecert.exe;</li>
  <li>Self sign a certificate B which is issued by computer A as root CA;</li>
  <li>Install certificate B on computer A as certificate used to do communication;</li>
  <li>Install/trust root CA (compter A) into computer C;</li>
  <li>Then computer C will trust computer A's communication using certificate B.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>My confusion is, computer C trusts computer A without installing certificate B? I think both root CA's certificate and the other party's certificate are needed to be installed. Any comments or ideas?</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance,
  George</p>
