Yes, but then it's no better security than ws://. So either use insecure or 
use a certificate.

Sorry, I don't know.

What you can do is generate a certificate every couple of months, in each 
machine that uses your application. Make the client use that certificate as 
the only entry in the CA list, so it will accept the certificate from the 
server without prompting a warning.
