SSL Expiry

Hi,

We are running the URL HTTPS test on a webserver to detect any problems with our SSL certificates.

I'd like to be able to be informed when a certificate is about to expire (like expires in X days).

This would be very useful to ensure all webservers have their SSL certificates renewed in a timely manner.

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,

yes, that would be a nice little feature

At the moment we use a shell script, which you can find here - http://prefetch.net/articles/checkcertificate.html

You only need openssl and a linux machine.

There is command line utility that may check when SSL certificate expires: http://www.ks-soft.net/download/utils/certcheck.zip
It can be used with HostMonitor's Shell Script test method.
Please, read the following article for details: http://www.ks-soft.net/cgi-bin/phpBB/vi ... php?t=5182
