<p>Alternatively you can specify the distinguished name by creating a
sub-element named dname and populating it with param elements that
have a name and a value. When using the subelement it is automatically
encoded properly and commas (&quot;<code>,</code>&quot;) are replaced
with &quot;<code>\,</code>&quot;.</p>

<p>The following two examples are identical: </p>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<blockquote><pre>
&lt;genkey alias=&quot;apache-group&quot; storepass=&quot;secret&quot; 
  dname=&quot;CN=Ant Group, OU=Jakarta Division, O=Apache.org, C=US&quot;/&gt;
</pre></blockquote>

<blockquote>
  <pre>
&lt;genkey alias=&quot;apache-group&quot; storepass=&quot;secret&quot; &gt;
  &lt;dname&gt;
    &lt;param name=&quot;CN&quot; value=&quot;Ant Group&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;param name=&quot;OU&quot; value=&quot;Jakarta Division&quot;/&gt;
