Verifying SSL Certificate Request Details

Certificate Details

Now that I manage a lot of SSL certificates and generate requests/renewals, I've gotten used to using OpenSSL for double checking all my cert request info. Right now, I use Cygwin (a linux emulator for windows) to run OpenSSL on my windows box. From there I can open a Cygwin prompt and run OpenSSL commands directly on a cert request

$openssl req -in mycertrequest.txt -noout -text
