None of the above :-)
Depends what you mean by 'questions'. If you want to alter the fields
that 'req' prompts for then you should edit openssl.cnf or whatever
configuration file you point 'req' at.
It is also possible to run 'req' with a template configuration file
which is then utilised without prompting for anything at all (see manual
page to req). This can be used to write a custom field prompting front
end (e.g. GUI or in a scripting language).
