Hello deblarinteln,

There is the man page x509v3_config.
It should contain the info you need.
A hint: x509v3_config describes data found in the openssl.cnf file.
So this data is used on creating a certificate / CSR...

I think .cer is just DER encoded data.
The OpenSSL subcommand x509 has an option to save a certificate
in DER format.


I admit I'm somewhat vague.
This is on purpose, because in the range of
shooting-yourself-in-the-foot opensll and cryptography
is a very big canon.
It is essential to have at least some basic understanding about what you
do.
Giving you a cookbook will not give you this understanding.

Goetz
