I am having problems generating a certificate for nessus. I looked at the eroor log and apparently it has to do with something with asn1. I have tried several different things, like updaitng my openssl, compiling Nessus from source rahter than the online install. I keep getting this error listed below. I noticed this in earlier posts to this list but I am unable to see a solution anywhere. Can someone tell me if there is a fix? Or any ideas on what could be wrong. Also when you look at the error it says string are too long, but none of my strings r long I have even tried to use '.' for every field and it still gives me the same error.
