Greetings,
can someone explain me what the difference between CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST and CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER is in the context of a client program? For a client, the host and the peer are both the server.
The only difference I can make out at first glance is that verifypeer may cause the connection to fail while verifyhost is tested later.
Regards
