Description

In the current version of pkitool the "openssl req" command is called with a -days argument ( ​ http://openvpn.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=openvpn/openvpn-testing.git;a=blob;f=easy-rsa/2.0/pkitool;h=49588f589e448d05f5dde51ecebe9f8dd4c22361;hb=refs/heads/master#l356 )

According to the openssl man page the -days argument is only valid when creating a self signed certificate using the -x509 flag ( ​ http://linux.die.net/man/1/req )
