Dear Winging It: Take a look at TID #10072424 at http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10072424.htm.

Entitled "How to Create a Web Site Certificate using Novell's CA," this TID gives you answers to the most obvious problem with the certificate containing the IP address of the server rather than the domain name.
