Hello,
        I installed a self signed certificate in SQL Server 2005, using
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sql_protocols/archive/2007/06/27/install-a-self-sign
ed-test-certificate-that-can-be-loaded-by-sql-server-automatically.aspx.  I
then used tsql to connect to this server without any problems.  

Question 1:  Should I have done anything else?  It just surprised me that I
did not have to do anything else.  I am sure it is ignorance on my part, but
just making sure.

Question 2:  Is there any way to reference a certification file?  I don't
know if I need to yet, but might as well ask now just in case.


Here is my configuration file ( from freetds.conf ).
        [MyServer2005]
            host = 192.168.254.91
            port = 1433
            tds version = 8.0
            encryption = required

Here is my tsql version:
        [tonyb:v9_odbc:V3_18]> tsql -C
        Compile-time settings (established with the "configure" script)
                                    Version: freetds v0.91.dev.20110409RC1
                     freetds.conf directory: /usr/local/etc

Thanks for your help.
