* Why can't I use OpenSSL certificates with SSL client authentication?
What will typically happen is that when a server requests authentication
it will either not include your certificate or tell you that you have
no client certificates (Netscape) or present you with an empty list box
(MSIE). The reason for this is that when a server requests a client
certificate it includes a list of CAs names which it will accept. Browsers
will only let you select certificates from the list on the grounds that
there is little point presenting a certificate which the server will
reject.
The solution is to add the relevant CA certificate to your servers "trusted
CA list". How you do this depends on the server sofware in uses. You can
print out the servers list of acceptable CAs using the OpenSSL s_client tool:
openssl s_client -connect www.some.host:443 -prexit
if your server only requests certificates on certain URLs then you may need
to manually issue an HTTP GET command to get the list when s_client connects:
GET /some/page/needing/a/certificate.html
If your CA does not appear in the list then this confirms the problem.
* Why does my browser give a warning about a mismatched hostname?
Browsers expect the server's hostname to match the value in the commonName
(CN) field of the certificate. If it does not then you get a warning.
