Hi all,

I have the following problem, when issuing a SPKAC request to  a CA built on OpenSSL I need to put a "'" (single quote) character
in the DN (i.e. CN = D'Angelo Riccardo or CN = O'Reilly Tim).
On the RA side no problems when formatting the request.
When passing it to the CA the request is fulfilled and no errors or warning are displayed BUT when I go to have a look to the
issued certificate I see that the DN has been AUTOMATICALLY converted to "DAngelo Riccardo" or "OReilly Tim" with no warnings (!)

How to handle this?

Is it possible to configure OpenSSL to accept "special chars" ?
Could the  only solution be to strip  "illegal" characters from the beginning?

Info:

Version: OpenSSL 0.9.6
Command: openssl ca -config ... -batch -key ... -preserveDN -spkac ...
