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.
