Default opensll req -new: unkown option -new!?

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

My cert expired so I'm trying to renew. Because the Organizational Unit =
field is now required, I'm trying to recreate a new CSR from my existing =
key:

# openssl req -new -key www.xyz.com.key -out www.xyz.com.csr
unknown option -new
req [options] <infile >outfile
where options are
......... etc..
-new new request.
......... etc.


I'm running FC6 with latest openssl-0.9.8b-15.fc6. I'm totally =
perplexed as to why -new is an unknown option. Any ideas?

Thanks, =20
