Bug with key rollover?Hi Pawel,

the CA command has a '-preserveDN' commandline option. I did not check if
this option keeps the DN contents intact, but it's worth a try ;-)

Subject: Bug with key rollover?


Hi all,
        I'm trying to do root key rollover. Therefore I created two CA
certificates, and then I was trying to perform cross-certification.
Everything looks OK, but I noticed that DN is changed.
I used command
openssl ca -ss_cert cert_to_be_sign -config config_file_signing_ca -out
new_cert_file
>From the original DN, mysterious disappear field L.
The original DN has: CN, OU, O, L, S, C
And cert was issued to CA with DN: CN, OU, O, S, C
I'm wondering what has happend.
