client certs signed by server certs

Hi,

I found a problem with a client cert in Windows certificate store, after 
all three certs have been installed. The server cert is considered 
invalid, because it lacks the privilege to sign further certs.
I hacked the Makefile a little bit, to generate client certs signed by 
CA cert, not by the server certs. This way, CA signs both certs and only 
the CA and client certs are required for Windows systems, and after 
successful installation both are considered valid.
I do understand that eliminating server cert has a security impact, but 
where should it be installed?
