That certainly helped me move along. Thank you!Is there a place where the genconf file format is explained? It does not support everything in the openssl config file format.?I was wondering if a file could be specified instead of an ENVIRONMENT variable as well.?

While you can use -genstr and -genconf together their use is rather limited
and probably wont do what you want.
Instead I'd suggest passing values using environment variables and uses the
config file environment variable options to include them in the appropriate
places.
