NAME

     CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE - set TLS authentication methods

SYNOPSIS

     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode           curl_easy_setopt(CURL            *handle,
     CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE, char *type);

DESCRIPTION

     Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The
     string  should be the method of the TLS authentication. Sup-
     ported method is "SRP".

     SRP  TLS-SRP authentication. Secure Remote Password  authen-
          tication  for  TLS  is  defined in RFC5054 and provides
          mutual authentication  if  both  sides  have  a  shared
          secret.   To   use  TLS-SRP,  you  must  also  set  the
          CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME(3)                         and
          CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD(3) options.

          The application does not have to keep the string around
          after setting this option.

DEFAULT

     blank

PROTOCOLS

     All TLS-based protocols

EXAMPLE

     CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
     if(curl) {
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE, "SRP");
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, "user");
       curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, "secret");
       ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
       curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
     }

AVAILABILITY

     You need to build libcurl with GnuTLS or OpenSSL  with  TLS-
     SRP support for this to work. Added in 7.21.4

RETURN VALUE

     Returns  CURLE_OK  if   the   option   is   supported,   and
     CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
