Hi there --

I am trying to create the nessus certificate using the nessus-mkcert script.
However I am consistently getting an error message saying 
the script was unable to create the certificate file. I checked the
openssl-output file and here is what I found:

Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus
..............................................................++++++
.++++++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [FR]:State or Province Name (full name)
[Some-State]:Locality Name (eg, city) 
[]:Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:Organizational
Unit Name (eg, section) 
[]:problems making Certificate Request 24892:error:0D07A097:asn1 encoding
routines:ASN1_mbstring_copy:string too long:a_mbstr.c:154:maxsize=64

I have openssl-0.9.7e running on a Fedora Core 3 system. I tried running the
above script as root and sudo user.
Anyone have any ideas what is going on? Thanks.
