I have searched the forums for multiple hostnames and commonName. I cannot get created Certs that are signed by the CA to have a commonName supplied in the config instead of the command line. I also want them to have subjectAltName fields too. I have tried the Policy *match* and basically get errors for it to create certs. I am sure there is some tweak here and enclosed the config file.
