I wrote this some time ago, and I now wan't to share it with the world:

Pre Actions:
-Create CaCert Account (http://cacert.org)
-Register Domain you want to generate a Cert forNow

1) Enter your SSL directory: cd /etc/apache2/ssl
2) Create Key-File: openssl genrsa -out sub.domain.com.key 1024
3) Create Certification Request: openssl req -new -key sub.domain.com.key -out sub.domain.com.csr
4) On CaCert Page: Click "Server Certificate"=>"New"
5) Paste content of sub.domain.com.csr
6) Copy the Certificate to sub.domain.com.crt
7) Remove sub.domain.csr
8) Edit Apache Conf
9) Done
