Just a little correction: the code is being tested (under Windows and Linux)
from January 2004, not May.

Subject: OCSP support added


> I added support for certificate validation through OCSP, where the OCSP
> server URI is contained in the certificate itself (following the X.509
> standard).
> The patch is available on
> http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31383 (for 2.0.49, but
> most of it is in separate files).
>
> The check is optional.
> There is also a parameter to decide if the authentication fails or not
when
> the server cannot be reached.
>
> The code allows conditional compilation (full code enclosed in #ifdef).
>
> This was developed for the Belgium Government and distributed publicly
from
> may 2004. No bug has been reported since.
>
> The code supports a proxy, although the option was not added in the config
> file.
> Another option in the config file could be to use a specified URI in case
it
> is not present in the certificate.
>
> If you have any remarks about it, just send me an e-mail.
> If you want this to be included in new releases, you can vote for it on
> http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/showvotes.cgi?voteon=31383.
