Peter,

I believe Scott meant you could use OpenSSL to grab the certificate from a
server and then with that tell what kinds it is.

We have something similar in our SSL documentation here:
http://docs.bvstools.com/home/ssl-documentation/openssl

Adding an openSSL hook to HTTPAPI and/or our GETURI product is also
something that's been on my todo list for a while as I'm just not satisfied
with the APIs much any more. I mean it's ok, but using openSSL would sure
be a nice addition. I had to do the same thing with email years ago and
one of my most used products was created. :)

Hi Scott,
Could you point me at some material so that I might try writing a program
that connects to a 3rd part server via OpenSSL as an alternative to HTTPAPI
?

Paul,

For server-type applications, you could connect with the openssl
command-line client. It can tell you all sorts of info about the certs
that it receives.

The same tool can be used to analyze a certificate from a file (on your PC
or the IFS, etc). You'd probably have to export it from the DCM, but you
could use this to find out whether it uses SHA256

You could also use it to connect to various services (Central, Database,
et al) to see what they're running.

Just a thought.

1) Within DCM, is there a method to see if a cert is SHA1 or SHA256?
I'm not seeing the sha details anywhere.

2) I need a tool or method to determine which cert is being used by a
non HTTP SSL job/process.
