I am guessing its just a warning, but wanted to confirm. For s_client, it's a warning. s_client overrides verify errors and allows you to continue. Most real apps don't do this and shouldn't, so for real apps this will probably be fatal. >... -cert client.crt -key client.key -CApath /root/CERT Did you put your CA cert in /root/CERT >with a symlink from $subjecthash.$seq, or if you prefer directly under that name<? If not, OpenSSL won't find it. Alternatively, use -CAfile with all your roots (perhaps only one) in a file. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
