Hi there, Is there anybody out there how could solve the "set serial number option" problem with the "openssl req x059" command? What I like to do is to create a self-signed root cert with a supplied serial number (i.e. not the default 00). Is the option provided in the latests release or one of the latests snapshots? I could not find anything in the release notes (may be I did not seach good enough). Thanks for your help, Mike ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
