First, a peer certificate must be presented. Servers generally
always have a certificate to present, as it is required by
SSL
. Client
certificates are optional in SSL however, so remote browsers (or
remote Vortex clients) may have to have a certificate configured
(e.g. via sslcertificatefile, here). Note that if the
sslverifyserver or SSL Verify Client setting is
"optional" (or contains "-No_Peer_Certificate"),
failure to present a certificate is not an error (though presented
certificates still go through the checks that follow); this may reduce
security however.
