title: startdate openssl set timezone
body: <p>Good Morning,</p>
  
  <p>Today I have a question concerning openssl. When I sign a certificat in openssl with my CA, I realized that I needed to wait a certain amount of time before being able to use the certificat. </p>
  
  <p>At first I did not understant what was wrong as I had the same hour on my ca and on my server (Used for openvpn). But I realized that when you sign a certificat by default the timezone of the certificate is GMT while my server are using CET. </p>
  
  <p>So I thought that I was going to use startdate when I generate the certificate and the problème will be solwed. But even when I use start date like '20140404000000Z' , the time zone is still GMT while my server is in CET.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to tell him to use the timezone of my server and not GMT. My server is a centos.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be appricated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
