Hi,

I can make openssl's ca tool issue certificates with the subject's dname 
encoded as UTF8String for requests with UTF-8 encoded subject dnames. However, 
when I change the subject via the -subj commandline option, I can't seem to get 
a certificate with a UTF-8 encoded subject dname.

Here's what I see:
-subj is ascii string, no -utf8 commandline option  -> PrintableString
-subj is ascii string, -utf8 commandline option -> PrintableString
-subj contains umlaut, no -utf8 commandline option -> TeletexString
-subj contains umlaut, -utf8 commandline option -> TeletexString

This is with openssl v1.0.0-beta3 15 Juli 2009.


How can I make the ca tool encode the subject name given via the commandline as 
UTF8String?


Thank you in advance,
Patrick Eisenacher
