How to get client certificate from IIS?

I have a CGI application that should be able to read and store client
certificates. With CGI I see no way to do it, so I thought about
redirecting client to an ASP page where I have access to the
Request.ClientCertificate("Certificate") variable.

I wasn't able to get this variable with server-side JScript on IIS 5.1,
and in VBScript it doesn't work as described in documentation
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/216829/EN-US/,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iissdk/iis/ref_vbom_reqoccc.asp).
Provided examples are non-functional.

I must be missing a lot as it looks I'm the only one complaining about
it. Please give me a hint.
