Which version of OpenSSL on SUSE? Also important, which version of which webserver software? (OpenSSL is not the only SSL toolkit on the planet; mod_nss exists as well, and that's a different mailing list.)
For troubleshooting, I'd suggest looking into openssl s_client and s_server. Load s_server with the key/cert that your webserver is using, give s_client the certificate and private key file for the client-auth side. Read the manpages on them and you'll find a lot of useful information. (Also, point your SOAP::Lite client to the s_server, and look at the chain that it's sending. It might be sending it with \r instead of \r\n -- base64 encodes 3 bytes into 4, and at the end of the line it requires network line endings. which just happens to match DOS line-ending format.) -Kyle H On Thu, Dec 11, 2008 at 11:14 AM, McGovern, James F (HTSC, IT) <james.mcgov...@thehartford.com> wrote: > We are running into an issue with an application that is written in PERL > using SOAP:Lite and OpenSSL on Suse where a SOAP request is sent to a server > that requires mutual authentication.
