> be used by a certificate. Looking at the code, it looks
> like it parses this as a normal conf file, looking in
> the "extensions" subsection. I couldnt find information
> about what settings should go in this section in either
> the x509 or the config man pages. I would like to
> know how to mark a certificate as being an x509v3
> CA. I would also like to know if it is possible to
