Well, you can have a look into the openssl/docs directory (openssl.txt)
where there is an extensions description. Anyway a CA is enabled to sign
any kind of certificate, just set the CA:TRUE in the basicConstains, you
can also use the sslCA in the nsCertType but it is not requested. For
clients you can use:

        nsCertType=client, email
        keyUsage=digitalSignature,keyEncipherment,dataEncipherment,
                 keyAgreement

(digital signature is not required, I guess, but suggested)

Hope this helps. Don't forget to post your questions to the mailing lists
(users) for the sake of all the subscribers... :-D
