Thanks a lot for your reply. But I'm an absolute newbie with openssl and
couldn't exactly make out how to use your CA patch. Seems I need to replace the
.c file and complie the entire thing..but I'm using 0.9.5a zip supplied by
someone. This has no C files !! Only openssl.exe, libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll
with the serial file. textdb file and crl.pem.
Therefore, what I'm using is practically a ready-made CA and I'm not able to
locate any C files !!
I'll download 0.9.6 and go thru it...
Could u provide some more help, tips..?
Thank You

Thera are 2 ways.
1) Write a script that sets up tha correct values
and than pass them to the command line
2) Patch tha ca command
I've chosen the last one.
I sent the patch on this list some weeks ago. Search for "Useful CA
patch"
subject in the archive.
