OpenSSL: The Gift that Keeps On Giving
OpenSSL is just a gem of a package. It is so incredibly powerful, and does just about anything you could imagine that a crypto library could do. I am admittedly just an amateur at using this library, but when debugging an SSL issue where a cert was not verifying for me, I discovered this command through Tha Googles:
openssl s_client -connect www.logoworks.com:443 -showcerts
This shows you every step in which the SSL verification takes place, where the verification fails, etc. Really nifty.
