Create certificates for clients and how to set up a CA like verisign

Help me!! 1- My First worry: I installed openca on ubuntu 8.10. It works fine. I initialized the mysql database, generated new ca secret a new ca request, an initial ca certificate and RA certificate. All seems to be right. But, When I had to configure my web site to turn under ssl with a client authentication , I wonder how to generate the other certificates for my clients. So , I created other certificates by using RA Certificates and it works fine. My browser can't log on to my website until I install a correct certificate generated by the openca. My question: Is it a correct way to use openca (I mean the use of created ra certificates as client certificates)? 2- My second worry : after installing the verisign certificate (I don't use a self signed certificate), how can I use it in the process of generating my certificates: is there any relation between my client cetificates and the certificate sent by verisign (note that I sent them my csr before they sent me the certificate)?
