Yes, that's what I'm doing. My question is about the parsing of the certificate.

Great, that will help me pinpoint the problem.
Basically, I want to be able to do this: https://github.com/bergos/pubkey-login/blob/master/pubkey-login.js#L93 since I'm doing this https://github.com/bergos/pubkey-login/blob/master/pubkey-login.js#L85.
However, the property subjectaltname does not exist in the object returned by getPeerCertificate() (others do) when it's included in the X509 extensions. So i'm wondering wether I'm missing a parameter somewhere that makes nodejs also parse the X509 extensions properties. Could you perhaps provide an example certificate that works with your implementation?

Best,

Miel
