Hi everybody,
I have some problems with X509 extensions. First of all, what I want to do:
I want to define new extensions, simply some new extension fields that I
want to fill with values.
I thought, I just define them in an array:
struct entry ext_entries[3] =
{
{"basicConstraints","CA:FALSE"},
{"authorityKeyIdentifier","keyid,issuer:always"},
{"myOwnExtension","myValue"}
};
Those are the extensions for a non CA certificate. The CA certificate
has only the first two, but not the third. When I execute
ext=X509V3_EXT_conf(NULL,&ctx,ext_entries[i].key,ext_entries[i].value)
I get an error for myOwnExtension "unknown extension name". I tried to
add it to openssl.cnf under [usr_cert], but that didn't fix it. Where
and how do I have to define new extensions? That should be possible,
shouldn't it?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Carolin
