By doing the above, will the command I used in the question work? i.e. the uuid would get added to the subject line? So, if I add a new attribute to the cofiguration file in the server and generate the certificate withe the added information. On the client side, to extract the same information from the certificate, I would need to add the same details to the config file as well, right? Or that is not necessary?
