Hello,

Does anyone know why it is that when I have a (req.pem type) certificate
request from Internet Explorer and sign off on it with:

$SSL/openssl base64 -d < $DIR/req | $SSL/openssl req -config
/ssl/acaci/acaci-openssl.cnf \
  -inform der -text > $DIR/req.pem

I get extraneous information in the Subject field like so:

\x00S\x00o\x00f\x00t\x00w\x00a\x00r\x00e

where this is supposed to be 'Software'

What causes the '\x00's to be written?

It works fine if I sign off on a (req.raw type) certificate request from
Netscape with:

$SSL/openssl ca -verbose -policy policy_anything -spkac $DIR/req.raw \
  -config /usr/local/ssl/lib/acaci-openssl.cnf \
  -out
/usr/local/apache/share/htdocs/acaci.com/htdocs-442/${SESSIONID}.ucert


Please reply via email!

Thank you,
Murrah Boswell
