To fix complaints (those are valid and reasonable complaints) about a
non trustful certificate authority which signed your custom self-signed
certificates you need to import the CA cert - be default named
cacert.pem.
If the client application(s) complain about non matching CN within the
presented server certificate, then you made something wrong during
certificate creation. The CN has to match the canonical name of the
service/host.
