 How do I get past this? I was looking to just self sign for https.

in my admittedly limited experience with this stuff, you need to create your own rootCA, and use that to sign your certificates, AND you need to take the public key of the rootCA and import it into any trust stores that will be used to verify said certificates.

If you don't do this, then there's no real point using SSL at all, and you
*should* be forced to override security with arguments:

wget --no-check-certificate
curl --insecure

etc.
