As summarized in the conf(5) manual page you do this... Add an entry to the default section (start of file before any other sections) containing something like: openssl_conf=config_section Add new sections like this: [config_section] oid_section=new_oids [oid_section] some_oid = 1.2.3.4.1 some_other_oid = 1.2.3.4.2 but obviously using appropriate OID values.
