View x509 certificate details

OpenSSL is quite a complex application, however it is quite easy to get it to show you details or a given x509 SSL certificate using this command:


$ openssl x509 -in filename.crt -noout -text

Where filename corresponds to the X.509 certificate file, which typically would end in .crt, .cert or .pem.
