I'm interested in using custom OIDs for private application purposes.
I've found the documentation to be deficient.
For instance, in openssl.cnf it gives an example line of
[ new_oids ]
#testoid1=1.2.3.4
When I uncomment that line I can't even tell what the effect is; e.g.,
"openssl req ..." do
Thanks for the various replies.
