[drakma-devel] drakma and personal ssl certificates

[Kevin Raison]

Edi, basically, the HTTP server forces the client to authenticate itself 
using a client certificate.  I believe RFC2246 describes the process, 
see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2246.txt.  The patches at 
http://web.kepibu.org/code/lisp/cl+ssl/ which add client certificate 
support have already been incorporated into CL+SSL, so it should be 
relatively easy to add support to Drakma, perhaps by adding 
client-ssl-certificate and client-ssl-key keywords to http-request and 
then passing the args to cl+ssl:make-ssl-client-stream in request.lisp. 
  Unless I have missed something and there is a way to do this already, 
I will experiment and send you a patch.

Cheers.
Kevin
