gnutls_certificate_verify_peers(3)

NAME
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers - return the peer's certificate verification status

SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

int gnutls_certificate_verify_peers(gnutls_session_t session);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_session_t session
    is a gnutls session

DESCRIPTION
This function will try to verify the peer's certificate and return its status (trusted, invalid etc.). However you must also check the peer's name in order to check if the verified certificate belongs to the actual peer.

The return value should be one or more of the gnutls_certificate_status_t enumerated elements bitwise or'd, or a negative value on error.

This is the same as gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify().

DEPRECATED
Use gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2() instead.
