I reached the following solution: I never got access to any SSL_*-variables under $_SERVER (not even the server variables or using another language - or server, php version and OS), but a workaround for Apache and mod_ssl is to add SSLOptions +ExportCertData to httpd.conf (or .htaccess) The certificate presented by the client would then be stored in $_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT'] (the only SSL_*-variable available, besides SSL_SERVER_CERT). The data could then be retrieved using openssl_x509_parse(), e.g.: <?php $cert = openssl_x509_parse($_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT']); print $cert['subject']['CN']; ?> I would still like to know why the SSL-variables aren't available, but I don't think this is a PHP issue. Just wanted to post my solution for the sake of mail archives :-) -- - Peter Brodersen -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
