Hi all,

            I am working in an application which involves TLS connection. My
requirement is to read

subjectAltName from the client certificate received by the server, when
accepting TLS connection.

 

            I have generated CA certificate, client and server certificate
with subjectAltName extension.

I used openssl 0.9.7 library to read the peer certificate using the API
"SSL_get_peer_certificate(ssl);".

But it is always showing extension field of the x509 cert_info as NULL.

 

            Please confirm whether my steps are right in reading
subjectAltName? 

Or please share me the right way to do it.

 

Thanks in Advance,

S.Manivannan.
