Get Rid of CP SSL Certificate Warning

How can I get rid of the warning thrown to new people at the control panel? Do I have to buy an SSL certificate or can self-signed work? Does Vesta have self-signed built-in, and if so, how do I configure it to not throw the warning? Thanks!

I am on Ubuntu 14.04

yeah, it have Self-signed option but it will still showing that warning, you can tell the users to add the site as an "warning exception" to the browser, I will obviously depend of the browser they are using.
Another way is to make them to install the certificate like trusted.
In fact the better one is to buy a crtficiate, but taking in count that is kinda expensive, I would say that is better to use Firefox (browser) and set the exception.

A Comodo domain validation certificate costs €9. That's pretty fucking cheap.

You don't have to buy a certificate, StartSSL is free.
