Please excuse my ignorance on this list. I write only because I've researched for several weeks now without success.

I have created a perl program that does successfully access a remote secured server using https. I can retrieve pages and send request successfully.

What remains is the need to verify the remote server's SSL certificate. Within my perl program using LWP I can see the cert perameters in the headers returned but I cannot find the expiration date. I know that this must be a common routing but I'm stumped.

Research leads me to believe that I must execute openssl with a sub-command such as -verify or -x509, etc.

Can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction to obtain the cert's full parameters?

Thanks in advance.

Bob
