Re: Advanced certificate verification

 

Hi Remi,

Using OCSP isn't currently possible, nor is it possible to define your
own verifications. It seems like would be a good idea though.
mosquitto already uses the openssl callbacks it would be simple enough
to allow your own to be provided.

Cheers,

Roger
