Quick and dirty, man x509, look for the -nameopt option and read about the TEXT OPTIONS. Look at the corresponding flags in starting from apps/x509.c code: you can obtain the subject with parts split by \n (line feeds) and that makes easier to search for \nOU= and alike. Not the best solution but quick. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
