"openssl verify" does the trick.

http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/verify.html#

And to test if the key and the cert belong together:

openssl x509 -in $cert -noout -modulus | openssl md5

openssl rsa -in $key -noout -modulus | openssl md5

If the md5 sums don't match, the key or the cert is invalid.

Hi,

A key/pair was sent to me from my admin and it looked like it came from GeoTrust. It’s a wildcard cert.

I downloaded the Root CA from GeoTrust ‘s web site because LDAP requires the CA file.

What command do I use to make sure the key/pair that was sent to me is compatible with GeoTrust’s CA?
