Hey Peter,

Wildfire is currently using the "you install a key, certificate and various 
CA files" process. The server already bundles cacert.org root certificates 
(PEM) so new installs should 1) generate their certificates, 2) ask 
cacert.org to certify them and 3) import the certified certificates by 
cacert.org.

Regards,
