Demonstrates how to generate a CSR containing a 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest with the following extensions:
  • 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.20.2 enrollCerttypeExtension
  • 2.5.29.15 keyUsage
  • 2.5.29.37 extKeyUsage
  • 2.5.29.14 subjectKeyIdentifier

; Add the following 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest
; Note: The easiest way to know the content and format of the XML to be added is to examine
; a pre-existing CSR with the same desired extensionRequest.  You can use Chilkat to
; get the extensionRequest from an existing CSR. 

; 
; Here is a sample extension request:
