Hello all, Thanks a lot. The trouble was in (outdated) info in the only relevant doc on the openssl web I found, ie. x509v3_config(5) (http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/x509v3_config.html#CRL_distribution_points_) where you can find: ===quot=== Full distribution point example:
crlDistributionPoints=crldp1_section [crldp1_section] fullname=URI:http://myhost.com/myca.crl CRLissuer=dirName:issuer_sect reasons=keyCompromise, CACompromise [issuer_sect] C=UK O=Organisation CN=Some Name ===/quot=== that leads to the mentioned errors the syntax given by Steve: crlDistributionPoints = @crldp_section [crldp_section] URI.1=ldap:///<AD_crl_info_here> URI.2=http://<webpage_with_crl_file_here> works fine. Please consider to update the doc.
