Todd, I agree. Have the warning only where it matters (but have it there).

The openssl application does way more than certificate operations, and seeing a warning for a configuration file that has no impact on the operation being performed is annoying. Rather than completely remove the warning, I would instead suggest that the warning only be issued for certain commands that may use parameters from the configuration file. -- -Todd Short // tsh...@akamai.com<mailto:tsh...@akamai.com> // “One if by land, two if by sea, three if by the Internet."
