Hi Eric Murray,

(are you the buddy also known as the "Marlboro Man"?)

regarding your question, you should know in first place:
openssl.cnf and the environment value OPENSSL_CONF are _not_ used by the
OpenSSL library by default.
With one exception: you compiled your own OpenSSL lib with -D
OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF

I tried this some weeks before and ran into next problem, then I lost
the fun to try out more ...

with best regards,
Modem Man
