Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http
Dim domain As String = "chilkatsoft.com"
Dim port As Integer = 443

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The GetServerSslCert method is deprecated:

Dim cert1 As Chilkat.Cert = http.GetServerSslCert(domain,port)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine(cert1.SubjectDN)


' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Do the equivalent using GetServerCert.
' Your application creates a new, empty certificate object which is passed 
' in the last argument and filled with the server certificate upon success.

Dim cert2 As New Chilkat.Cert
success = http.GetServerCert(domain,port,cert2)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine(cert2.SubjectDN)
