Hi

I searched for a functions that converts the
notBefore and notAfter -validation time from a x509 cert into
a unix struct tm or struct timeval.

I ended up with implementing my own version.
Is there any such a function ?
I found many output functions...but i need to
snprintf the time into a buffer char * buffer to pass this to
a gui application (so BIO wont help unless i can write into
a char *buffer....)

The programs are unclear about what to check the CN name against.
If the user supplies an ip...should i check the CN name
against the reverse lookup or dont do a check at all ?

And if the user supplies a hostname ?
Should i do a gethostbyname and also compare against
the aliases if the usersupplied hostname does not match ?
(the example applications dont do this...but it would be nice i think).

Is there a way to poll all ciphers that are supported by the
peer from the peer ?
