9identity for outgoing SSL connections.

11.IP "\fB\-c\fR \fIcert.pem\fR"
12.IQ "\fB\-\-certificate=\fIcert.pem\fR"
13Specifies a PEM file containing a certificate that certifies the
14private key specified on \fB\-p\fR or \fB\-\-private\-key\fR to be
15trustworthy. The certificate must be signed by the certificate
16authority (CA) that the peer in SSL connections will use to verify it.

BP
20Specifies a PEM file containing the CA certificate that \fB\*(PN\fR
21should use to verify certificates presented to it by SSL peers. (This
22may be the same certificate that SSL peers use to verify the
23certificate specified on \fB\-c\fR or \fB\-\-certificate\fR, or it may
1af5bea7 24be a different one, depending on the PKI design in use.)

26.IP "\fB\-C none\fR"
27.IQ "\fB\-\-ca\-cert=none\fR"
28Disables verification of certificates presented by SSL peers. This
29introduces a security risk, because it means that certificates cannot
30be verified to be those of known trusted hosts.
