Dear ladies/gentlemen, I'd like to clear up the situation with the feature described in manual http://openssl.org/docs/apps/x509v3_config.htm (attached below).
I tried even that same example from the manual, with 2 different versions of open ssl (0.9.7 linux, 1.0.0 windows) -- in both cases this example does not work. But the feature is highly valuable! (for ladap URIs, you know). So, any hint, please. (I can "work around" the problem with row format of fields, but it's not a nice solution).
