Trying to get an HTTPS session working using client certificates from a self-signed CA. The connection should check that all certificates are valid, both client and server side.
The process I followed is roundly as follows:
Create Certificate Authority
openssl genrsa -out CA.key 4096 openssl req -new -key CA.key -out CA.csr openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in CA.csr -out CA.crt -signkey CA.keyCreate Server Certificate
openssl genrsa -out server.key 4096 openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr openssl ca -in server.csr -cert CA.crt -keyfile CA.key -out server.crtCreate Client Certificate
openssl genrsa -out client.key 4096 openssl req -new -key client.key -out client.csr openssl ca -in client.csr -cert CA.crt -keyfile CA.key -out client.crtConfigure Apache
<VirtualHost _default_:443> SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile "server.crt" SSLCertificateKeyFile "server.key" SSLCACertificateFile "CA.crt" <Directory "/var/www"> SSLVerifyClient optional SSLVerifyDepth 10 SSLOptions +StdEnvVars +ExportCertData </Directory> </VirtualHost>
Now I try and make a test connection:
wget \
--post-data 'id=1234' \
--certificate=client.crt \
--ca-certificate=CA.crt \
https://test.example.com:443
The resulting output from wget shows (over and over), in part:
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... No data received.
Retrying.
Checking the SSL error log from Apache give me the following messages:

Run the openssl client to see if there's anything to help in here:
openssl s_client \
-showcerts \
-connect test.example.com:443 \
-cert client.crt \
-key client.key \
-CAfile CA.crt
In the reply I see the following:
---
Server certificate
subject=/C=XX/ST=XXXXX/O=XXXX/CN=test.example.com
issuer=/O=XXXX/L=XXXXX/ST=XXXXX/C=SE/CN=XXXX Certificate Authority
---
No client certificate CA names sent
---
SSL handshake has read 3846 bytes and written 519 bytes
---
New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
Server public key is 4096 bit
"No client certificate CA names sent" looks different to what I am expecting. I want client certificates.
Where am I going wrong?
