By specifying a suitable CApath. However, note that the algorithm
used to compute the subject name hash (the hex digits before the
final .<instance> extension in the soft links) changed between
OpenSSL 0.9.8 and 1.0.0. In environments where you have both OpenSSL
0.9.8 and 1.0.0 or later applications, you need a c_rehash that generates
both hashes.
How CApath is specified for a particular applicaiton depends on that
application.
Also the CAs in CApath need to be "root" (self-signed) CAs. If
you used an intermediate CA, its issuer needs to go into /etc/ssl/certs,
and the server chain needs to include not only the leaf, but also
any intermediate certificates.
