Hi Sharon

As Roger said, from a Paho perspective it would be great to have an example out there. You could post it on Stack Overflow, but another good alternative would be either in a Github repository or as a Gist on Github. I'll be sure to link that from the Paho wiki!

Thanks.

Andy

Hi Roger,

At last, I can confirm that everything works!
Thanks for all the help!
I will post my sample code in stack overflow, so it will come up in google search...

By all means - I'm sure the Paho guys would be pleased to have it as an example of how to use SSL. I'm not sure where the best place to put it would be though.

Great, after a bit of playing I see what's going on. The problem is that you've got the exact same details with your CA as with your server and client certificates. Try changing the Organisational Unit and/or the Common Name to ensure that the tools can distinguish between your server/client certificates and the CA that signed them. I should add that to the docs.

Cheers,

Roger
