Dear friends, thanx a lot for the help.
I am doing this way.
A shell script to accept values for each attribute and put these in a
info.inf file.
Then do this :
openssl req -new -key prikey.pem -out req.csr < info.inf

thanx again.

i do it this way. there is probably a better one:

openssl req -new -key prikey.pem -out req.csr < info_file

where info_file is a generated file (in this case with your shell
script) and looks like this:

------
ES
Your state
Your city
Your organization
Your organizational unit
Your name
------

if you don't want to fill any of the fields just leave a blank line.

hope this helps.


best regards,
