Thanks for your feedback. I don't think either that the override_cert_url = no works properly since the ocsp extension in the client certificate is not parsed anyway. Alan: does the change log refer to certificates without the proper extensions defined ? Because my situation is slightly different, the clients present a certificate that does contain the OCSP properties.

I think I saw the same - that it wouldn't extract the URL from the cert, and just came back with (null)s. As usual, I just blamed OpenSSL and moved on. If I get a chance, I'll try and check it again. soft_fail will allow the auth to succeed in the event that there is no response (rather than a negative response) from the OCSP server - otherwise it "fails safe" and rejects the request. It's in case the OCSP server happens to be down for some reason. > Upgrade.
