Hi,

I have the following problem:
I want to sign a request which contains as CN a string like
CN=SomeTest@SomeTeam@[EMAIL PROTECTED]


When trying to sign the csr, i get:

Check that the request matches the signature
Signature ok
The Subjects Distinguished Name is as follows
[...]
commonName            :PRINTABLE:'
The string contains characters that are illegal for the ASN.1 type
unable to load certificate


The csr was NOT generated with openssl.
When I generate a csr with openssl containing a CN like
CN=gerd@home@berlin@tu
no problem when signing it:

[...]
commonName            :T61STRING:'gerd@home@berlin@tu'
Certificate is to be certified until Mar 27 09:42:31 2003 GMT (365 days)
Sign the certificate? [y/n]:y

But now the string is recognized not as PRINTABLE but as T61STRING.


Could someone please give me hint, what happened?

Thanks, Gerd
