Hi !!!

I grab many part of ssl_mod to develop a ssl proxy using certificates to
restrict access to internal resource
(http://www.multimania.com/jonama/)...

Questions :

1) It's not clear is if SSLCACertificatePath must point to a directory
with client certs or a directory with well-known CA certs (ie
Thawte/Verisign..).

2) Did mod_ssl need hash filename in CAPath since it parse all files in
the directory ??? 

.........

    if (cpCApath != NULL) {
        dir = ap_popendir(p, cpCApath);
        while ((direntry = readdir(dir)) != NULL) {
            cp = ap_pstrcat(p, cpCApath, "/", direntry->d_name, NULL);
            sk = SSL_load_client_CA_file(cp);
            for(n = 0; sk != NULL && n < sk_num(sk); n++) {
                ssl_log(s, SSL_LOG_TRACE,
                        "CA certificate: %s",
                        X509_NAME_oneline((X509_NAME *)sk_value(sk, n),
NULL, 0));
                if (sk_find(skCAList, sk_value(sk, n)) < 0)
                    sk_push(skCAList, sk_value(sk, n));
            }
        }
        ap_pclosedir(p, dir);
    }

.........

3) When and where the client certificate verification is done in mod_ssl
?

4) I've got a WebServer certificate from Thawte. Can I use it or modify
it to sign my own certificates ???

        1) Thawte
        2) my WWW certificate
        3) my clients certs


Thanks...
