Summary: Wildcard are not supported in server certificates
Product: Mono: Class Libraries
Version: SVN
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: Enhancement
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Mono.Security
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Currently, TlsServerCertificate.CheckDomainName does not support wildcard
characters.
A website that uses such a certificate is:
https://www.novell.com
The fact that this is not yet supported is clearly documented in the code.
I found some information on how MS implements this:
As described in RFC 2595, Microsoft's implementation allows a * in the leftmost
element of the server's CN only. Within that leftmost element, there can be
text to the left of the * but not to the right.
