I found it does this if it cannot find openssl.cnf. You can tell it where
the file is via the -config <file> switch.

My cert expired so I'm trying to renew. Because the Organizational
Unit field is now required, I'm trying to recreate a new CSR from
my existing key:
# openssl req -new -key www.xyz.com.key -out www.xyz.com.csr
unknown option -new ........ etc.
I'm running FC6 with latest openssl-0.9.8b-15.fc6. I'm totally
perplexed as to why -new is an unknown option. Any ideas?
Hi Eric,
perhaps the "-" has not the required ascii code. Did you copy that
command from a website? Some fellows use long minus signs for better
readability, so give it another try by typing the command line by hand.
