But how can I do that?! It's more embedding a BMPSTRING in the OCTET STRING than anything else. You create and populate an OCTET_STRING like so: ASN1_OCTET_STRING *aos = ASN1_OCTET_STRING_new(); ASN1_OCTET_STRING_set(aos, YourBMPString, YourBMPStringLength); Then you create the extension itself (assuming you alread have a NID for that OID): X509_EXTENSION *xext = X509_EXTENSION_create_by_nid(NULL, YourNID, 0, aos); Finally, add it to the certificate you create like so: X509_add_ext(x509, xext, int loc); TOTALLY UNTESTED! I leave the rest to you. Cheers, Richard ----- Please consider sponsoring my work on free software.
