You could install a web server on the box, on a nice high port. Then configure it to use the same cert as FR and return a blank 200 page. Then query that…

Is it possible to query freeradius' certificate expiration date remotely for the cert in /etc/raddb/certs?

I'm trying to set up an alert so there's notification when the cert is <60 days from requiring renewal.

I'm trying the following but the command returns connection refused on all of the ports I expected it to work on:

openssl s_client -servername rad2.domain.com -connect rad2.domain.com:1813 | openssl x509 -noout -dates

I've tried ports 443, 8080, 88, 1812, 1813, 1645, 1646, and everything else I can find that might be listening, to no avail.

Thanks for any guidance /mh - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

You could install the 'x509watch' package (assuming Linux/UNIX server), and configure it to look at the '/etc/raddb/certs' files and set the number of days before warning you. The package defaults to 30 days before warning. It has a simple config file at '/etc/sysconfig/x509watch'.
