Hi all,

After coming across the recent issue that OpenVPN clients using new
versions of openssl wouldn't accept ca certs I'd generated a while ago,
complaining that the signature was signed with a suitably strong hash I
went hunting. Turns out the openssl.cnf entry of what the message digest is
supposed to be is over-ridden by the explicit  invocation of -sha1 on the
command line for a few of the commands.
