Sorry the commands would be to output as text of a certificate:
openssl x509 -in cert.pem -out text.pem -text
Then push the DN into a hash
Make a temp config.cfg file
Create a request using the config file
openssl req -config config.cfg -new -keyout request.pem -out request.pem
Then sign the request
