How to get an IPhone or IPad (iOS 5.x) to properly recognize my certificate root authority

I created a self-signed root authority certificate using makecert. I created an SSL certificate issues by that authority and bound my IIS 7 website with it. I then pushed the root certificate to my iPad using IPhoneConfigurationUtility. However when I browse to my HTTPS site with my iPad, it still doesn't trust it. What am I doing wrong? What information can I provide here to help you guys help me out.

I followed the steps on this MSDN page to do this. The only exception is that I'm on IIS 7

Why is my root certificate not trusted?

The most common cause of a "certificate not trusted" error is that the certificate installation was not properly completed on the server (or servers) hosting the site. Use our SSL Certificate tester to check for this issue.

What version of iOS do you have?

Apparently ,there were some issues with SSL handling on iOS 5. Try to install it over the air (instead of through iPhone configuration utility)
