An appropriate openssl.cnf is the supported way to populate DNS altnames

into certificates created with the req(1), x509(1) and ca(1) utilities.

It is already included, via the openssl.cnf interface.  You can

also create openssl.cnf sections on the fly, without creating

any persistent files, with "bash" or similar shells.  See, for

example:
