I modify CA.pl and add the following lines:

        } elsif (/^-newreq-no-pw$/) {
            # create a certificate request
            system ("$REQ -new -nodes -keyout newreq.pem -out newreq.pem $DAYS");
            $RET=$?;
            print "Request (and private key) is in newreq.pem\n";

To generate a unencrypted certificate request.
