Hello everyone, Can anyone tell me the what exactly is thumbprint algorithm? All the certificates that I am creating using openssl have thumbprint algorithm as SHA1. I see no configuration to change that in openssl.cnf . As I understood, the only hash that is required in a certificate is the signature, which is the hash of the whole certificate using the algorithm mentioned in signature algorithm. Can't figure out where does thumbprint algorithm fit in and how can it be changed. Needless to say, I have already exhausted my searching skills to find the answer my self.
