Sorry,
I misunderstood something.
Not the oid shall be DER encoded, but its value and the correct
syntax (in OpenSSL 0.9.6b) is:
OID=:DER:some:octets:and:more:octets.
There is only one minor point: when I generate a text version
of the cert I get a cariage return and a period in the extension,
which is not present in its DER encoding, for instance:
..
1.0.8571.2:
.^[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The encoding in the config file was:
1.0.8571.2=DER:16:0D:74:65:73:74:31:40:72:73:61:2E:63:6F:6D
Maybe caused by emacs?
Any hint, or simply ignore?
Thanks,
Gerd
