Identifying the SSL server in a client session
After connecting to an SSL server socket from a client socket object using SSL, the client can identify the server by reading the value of the SSL-SERVER-NAME attribute on the socket object handle. This CHARACTER attribute returns the value of the SSL server's X.500 Subject name field from the server certificate after any SSL session has been established for a given socket object.
