Hi!

In order to check the correct hostname during a connection it is
necessary to extract the CommonName (CN) from the certificate.
I have browsed through the examples and the library, but I didn't
find a function to do so.
Must I parse the X509_NAME_oneline myself? Or did I just miss the
obvious. Unfortunately the documentation is not perfect, yet.

Thanks in advance,
        Lutz
