i wrote a goofy script to create server certs:

=================
#!/bin/sh 

eval $(openssl req -new > new.cert.csr)

#read [-p prompt] [-r] variable [...]
#read $(openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out new.cert.key)
eval $(openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out new.cert.key)
#VARNAME=$(openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out new.cert.key)

eval $(cat privkey.pem > newreq.pem)
eval $(cat new.cert.csr >>newreq.pem)
/usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.pl -signreq

echo "* Now cat the file newcert.pem and copy/paste the CERTIFICATE 
  portion to a new file named server.cert.."

  echo "* Copy only the Certificate data shown in that file to the new file. 
* Next rename the file new.cert.key to be named server.key"

exit 0
