[Nagiosplug-devel] Anybody interested in a plugin that checks SSL certificate validity or has it already been done?

Naoki,

This looks very interesting. Is it possible to roll it within check_http as
a different option?

We would be not be adding it to the 1.4 release at this stage, but it is
definitely a candidate for 1.5.

The "check_http -S" plugin call will check for cert expiry but that's not
good enough for me. I've created a plugin that will check for self signed,
bad intermediate CAs etc. If there is some interest I'll clean it up ( move
to getopt and add '--help' mainly ) and submit it properly.
