# different openssl.cnf file to generate certificate signing requests;
# this one is for use only in Certificate Authority operations (csr ->
# cert, cert revocation, revocation list generation).
#
# Be sure to customize this file prior to use, e.g. the commonName and
# other options under the root_ca_distinguished_name section.
