PKI newbie in need of help. 

When I sign a SSL cert with my CA, the certification path only lists the
web server.  Not my SubCA or the Windows Root CA. 

I am trying to stand up a SubCa under a Windows Certificate Authority
and I am having issues getting the Chain of Authority correct.  I have
been spinning my wheels for a while now and exhausted google(maybe I
just don't know what to search for...). Can someone point me to some
docs on this or help me? 


I generate my key 
# openssl genrsa -des3 -out /tmp/ca.key

I generate a CSR from that key
# openssl req -new -extensions v3_ca -days 3650 -key /tmp/ca.key -config
openssl.cnf -out ca.csr

Openssl has the following defined.
[ v3_ca ]
basicConstraints                = CA:TRUE, pathlen:2
subjectKeyIdentifier    = hash
authorityKeyIdentifier  = keyid:always,issuer:always

I send the CSR off to the windows folks who sign it and send it back.
They assure me they are using the SubCA Template for this.

Any obvious mistakes?
