in reply to Certificate host verification with Net::SSLeay::post_https

I only have used LWP::UserAgent with its host verification, and at least for the (fixed) hostnames I use, it works.

Net::SSLeay has a section on Certificate verification and Certificate Revocation Lists, maybe that one helps you?

    Thanks for the helpful link!

    It looks promising, but doesn't work as written. I now remember having seen it before, but was -- and still am -- confused by the $ssl parameter. It's used in various places in that document, but never declared or explained. And the code snippet doesn't compile, naturally, without some way of instantiating it.

    Any thoughts?
