Re: creating pkcs#8 certificates..
Well, I just figured out the following step tries to use configuration from /usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf while installing I had problem so had to install manually . I created three folder in c:\ssl and copied all appropriate files in resp dir..(bin, include, and lib).. anyway, ok now it should use configuration from c:\openssl\openssl-0.9.5a\apps\openssl.cnf where openssl.conf file is.. how and where to make change so that it reads configuration of openssl.conf not from /usr/local/ssl/opnssl.cnf help me, shashank Shashank wrote: Hi, I tried to create pkcs#8 certs, but on the very first step when I type D:\certsbash CA.sh -newca CA certificate filename (or enter to create) Making CA certificate ...

This is in the FAQ and the manual pages. You need to set the environment variable OPENSSL_CONF to the config file path. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N.
