Hi Hackers,

The current descriptions for server_ca.config and client_ca.config are
not so accurate. For example, one of the descriptions in
server_ca.config states, "This certificate is used to sign server
certificates. It is self-signed." However, the server_ca.crt and
client_ca.crt are actually signed by the root_ca.crt, which is the only
self-signed certificate. Therefore, it would be more accurate to change
it to "This certificate is used to sign server certificates. It is an
Intermediate CA."

Attached is a patch attempting to fix the description issue.

Best regards,

David
