Details

When creating a certficate using certutil, there is no way around having to make some input manually. When creating a certificate, only the fact that various certificate extensions should be present can be specified on the command line, but not their contents. These are requested from the user on stdin, and the user interface is non-intuitive and ugly. Therefore, certificate creation using certutil really cannot be automated.
