I installed OPENSA on my Windows 2000 server, and I went to generate a CSR request. It told me that it could not find the config file openssl.cnf. I searched my whole drive and it wasnt to be found. I went to the openssl site and after about 2 hours of looking through that site I found an example of this file. So I copy /pasted it into a file and ran the command to generate the CSR. I submitted it to directnic (my registrar and vendor of SSL certs. It kept telling me that things were missing from my CSR request. (like State, and then Organization). After much searching on the web I found another site which had a far more elaborate file, and I gleaned enough from it to get the CSR request to finally work through directnic, but I am wondering if I got everything.
I dont get why the file was not installed on my machine with opensa, and why the example file on the openssl site was missing stuff. Havent people (like me, ie new to Apache) been required to do this same thing??
