I'm not sure that I follow. I see the passin and passout options on the genrsa*, req**, and rsa*** command man pages, and I get "unknown option" for both -passout and -passout for the x509 command.

*) http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/genrsa.html
**) http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/req.html
***) http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/rsa.html

Do you care to clarify?

Thanks!

Best,
Jon Kristensen

Looking at the man page for openssl x509* I can't find any password

the certificate pass phrase?

Its on the man page for the openssl program itself, as these options are
the same for all the subcommands.
