The ca man page recommends that the "unique_subject" config parameter should be set to "no", but the default is "yes". It is set to "yes" for "compatibility with older (pre 0.9.8) versions of OpenSSL".

For 1.2.0 we should change the default.

Also see the discussion in #5444.

@mattcaswell mattcaswell added this to the 1.2.0 milestone Feb 23, 2018

I would like to take this one step further; abolish unique_subject, make it always possible to have multiple instances of the same.
