Hey there, Just stumbled across this today. I tried to create a certificate for testing purposes with a 63 byte domain name: thelongestdomainnameintheworldandthensomeandthensomemoreandmore.com -- (which for the record, does exist heh...)
However, because openssl is taking the TLD label, including the dot in .com into account (in addition to the ridiculously long domain name), the domain exceeds the 64 character limit, resulting in the following message: string is too long, it needs to be less than 64 bytes long In theory, that particular domain name should be supported. In practice, only domains up to 61 characters are supported by OpenSSL 1.0.0-fips 29 Mar 2010. While this is probably not super high priority, I would be remised if I did not mention it. Thanks!
