How to generate permanent ssl cert

I am currently working on building a server that will be used by our internal staff. Because the site will eventualy be used via the internet and be used to acces sencitive information, I was planing to use https.

In order to do this, I need to generate a self signed certificate, but I don't want it to expire. The users will be expecting to be warned about the certificate being self-signed, so I don't see a point in paying for a "valid" cert.

I've been having problems finding a good tutorial to do this. (I'm using apache 2 on linux, btw)

Anyone here could point me to one?
