I don't know how to do what you need with OpenSSL, but a document I
found useful in the past is:
http://home.earthlink.net/~fjhirsch/Papers/wwwj/article.html

So long as I am pasting links:
http://tirian.magd.ox.ac.uk/~nick/openssl-certs/
http://ospkibook.sourceforge.net/docs/OSPKI-2.4.7/OSPKI-html/ospki-book.htm
http://developer.netscape.com/tech/security/ssl/howitworks.html
http://www.cacert.org/

I am curious what the OpenSSL equivallent of a PGP keyserver is.
