Hello,

I am new to openSSL. I need to create a .csr file from openSSL to order a new certificate to my win10 computer. I did following as below.

In the demo directory I dont see the "ziath.ipa.xxx-net.net.csr" file.

What did I do wrong?
Appreciate any help.

Regards

Ziath

set RANDFILE=c:\demo\.rnd
