Sean,
Here's how I parse a client certificate made available on the HTTP server that
requires a digital cert for authentication.
There are as many as 22 entries in the returned array structure.
The certificate length required by the API is made available by the HTTP server
in an environment variable
which I use to populate variable alength (not shown)
D ParseCert PR ExtProc('QsyParseCertificate')
D $Cert * value
D $Certtype 10I 0 value
D $Certlen 10I 0 value
D $Format 8
D $Output * value
D $Outputlen 10I 0 value
D $Qusec * value
D Qusec DS
D QUSBPRV 10I 0 Inz(0)
D QUSBAVL 10I 0
D QUSEI 7
D QUSERVD 1
D QUSEXCP 256
D n S 5 0
D DS
D alength 9
D clength 9
D nlength 9 0 OVERLAY(clength)
D Cert S 32767
D CertLen S 10I 0
D CertType S 10I 0
D ParseData S Like(Cert)
D ParseDataLen S Like(CertLen)
D Inz(%size(ParseData))
D ParseFmt S 8 Inz('CERT0200')
D ListEntry DS
D FldOff 1 4B 0
D FldLen 5 8B 0

D FldVal DS 2000
D FldValue 100

Subject: QSYPARSC / QsyParseCertificate
I'm having a lot of trouble trying to parse a certificate and found no
references in the archive or google groups. I want to check some
information in a certificate from my telnet exit point program.
It's quite likely I'm doing something wrong!
I'll try to paste in the relevant portions. If anyone sees anything wrong
or missing, I'd greatly appreciate the info.
D ParseCert PR ExtProc('QsyParseCertificate')
D Certificate 32766A const options(*varsize)
D CertType 10I 0 const
D CertLen 10I 0 const
D CertFmt 8A const
D CertRcvr 32766A options(*varsize)
D CertRcvrLen 10I 0 const
D CertErr 32766A options(*varsize)
D p_Crt S *
D Crt S 32766A based(p_Crt)
D CrtType S 10I 0 Inz(1)
D CrtRcvrLen S 10I 0 Inz(32766)
** Connection information provided by telnet server (this part is apparently
working since I get the IP address and SSL flags.)
D p_CnnDscInfo S * inz(*NULL)
D dsCnnDscInfo DS based(p_CnnDscInfo)
D dsCnnLen 10I 0
D dsCnnAddr 20A
Client IP address
D dsCnnPWvalid 1A
D dsCnnWStype 12A
D dsCnnRsv1 2A
Part of WStype?
D dsCnnSSL 1A
D dsCnnSvrAddr 20A
Server IP address
D dsCnnClAut 1A
Client Auth Level
D dsCnnRsv2 3A
D dsCnnCertVld 10I 0
D dsCnnCertOff 10I 0
Offset to Cert
D dsCnnCertLen 10I 0
Certificate Length
D p_Cert S * inz(*NULL)
D dsCert DS based(p_Cert)
D dsCertCNOff 105 108I 0
Common Name (user)
c eval p_Crt = p_CnnDscInfo + dsCnnCertOff
c alloc 32766 p_Cert
c callp ParseCert(Crt : CrtType : CrtRcvrLen
c : 'CERT0200' : dsCert : CrtRcvrLen :
dsEC)
At this point I believe dsCertCNOff should have the offset to the Common
Name on the certificate. Every time I try it, I get 0. The API doc says
"If ... the offset to a field is 0, then the field does not contain any
information." I know the CN of the cert does contain information.
I've tried certificate type 1 and 3; I've tried format CERT0210 as well.
Any ideas? Have I provided enough info?
Thanks, all!
