I've a client that also acts as a server to some other client. Therefore, I need
to generate both client and server certs for this machine. Now when I specify
the same DN for the second time, openssl, naturally, refuses to sign the
request...What do I do? I can manage by changing some of the entities other than
the common name (becoz that cannot be different).

Is there a way other than specifying a different DN while generating client and
server certs for the same machine?

Thanx in advance
