Thanks a lot Robert,

But... I am still wondering what it means in simple english ???

All I understand is I probably need to have a new extension file called say 
"OCSP_Validator.ext" (say a copy of Web_Server.ext), and add the following line just 
below keyUsage line :
extendedKeyUsage = OCSPSigning

This is what I did, based on above, but did not succeed :
1. I created a csr using openssl (config : 
/usrlocal/openca/OpenCA/etc/openssl/openssl.cnf)
2. Used OpenCA to request for a server cert for the above csr.
3. Modified Web_Server.ext to add line --- extendedKeyUsage = OCSPSigning (just below 
keyUsage).
4. Edit and Approve cert at RA.
5. At CA : Issue cert : Gave the following error : 
   Error 690 
           Configuration Error. Error while storing role in cert-object.

Would appreciate if there are any more details on setting this.

Thanks
Pramila

Hi,

this is, what Massimiliano anwsered me some weeks ago:

"Simply use an extension where the OCSPSigning is set in the extendedkeyusage 
extension."

Regards,
Robert
