You are totally right.
Because of that CA's (including OpenSSL's ca command) usually work
with a certificate request which contains the public key (as well as
some other informations like the canonical name). Certificate requests
can be generated with OpenSSL's req command.
But how??? Could you give an example please (of [a] creating, and [b]
signing a "req")?
Thanks!!
