Viktor and others, thanks for the tips. I found that by using OpenSSL
1.0.1e I've been able to create the UTF8 format fields, such as:
71:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT:commonName
76:d=5 hl=2 l= 6 prim: UTF8STRING:Róót
However, creating the subjectAltName is not
I'm using the following configuration file section in an attempt to create
a CA with UTF8 characters in subject (and other) fields.
string_mask = utf8only
prompt = no
[ req ]
default_bits= 2048
default_keyfile = /opt/rasmussjCa/private/cakey.pem
Hi Walter,
Thanks for that, but I have tried those options also, I must be missing
something else?
commonName = UTF8String:Root
45:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT:commonName
50:d=5 hl=2 l= 15 prim: PRINTABLESTRING :UTF8String:Root
commonName =
Hi Rich!
Glad to hear from you and hope all is well!
Thanks for the tip, but I haven't cracked this nut yet. I've tried several
permutations of:
- the UTF8 flag on req - openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -out
rootcacert.pem -utf8 -outform PEM
- the no UTF8 flag on req - openssl req -x509
