Hi,

Checking asio::ssl sample, the client side code contains a way to
verify the server certificate as

ctx.set_verify_mode(boost::asio::ssl::context::verify_peer);
ctx.load_verify_file("ca.pem");

What parameters are checked by this function? Is it possible to check
the parameters in certificate file manually?

(I have gone through openssl manual, it seems openssl has functions for that)

And also how can I do a client authentication using SSL?

Thanks a lot,
  Lloyd
