Hello all,
I'm setting up an https server with apache-1.3.22+mod_ssl-2.8.5+php-4.1.2.
Since I have to check the client certificate at php level I put this line
in httpd.conf:

SSLVerifyClient require

The client certificate has been created with this extension:

nsCertType = server

At client side I'm testing the application with this command:

wget --sslcertfile=<hostcert.pem> --sslcertkey=<hostkey.pem> <url>

This is the error I get:

Unable to establish SSL connection.

This is the apache error_log I get:

[error] mod_ssl: Certificate Verification: Error (26): unsupported
certificate purpose

Is there a way to configure the required client certificate purpose?

ps.
I can solve the problem putting these lines in
mod_ssl-2.8.5-1.3.22/pkg.sslmod/ssl_engine_init.c

   /*
    *  Configure CTX purpose
    */
   SSL_CTX_set_purpose(ctx, X509_PURPOSE_ANY);

just before

   /*
    * Configure Client Authentication details
    */

and rebuilding mod_ssl.

Is there a cleaner way?
