Provided by: libcurl4-doc_8.12.1-2ubuntu1_all bug

NAME

       CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD - password to use for TLS authentication

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, char *pwd);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  char pointer as parameter, which should point to the null-terminated password to use for the TLS
       authentication  method  specified  with   the   CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE(3)   option.   Requires   that   the
       CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME(3) option also be set.

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

       Using  this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to
       disable its use again.

       This feature relies on TLS SRP which does not work with TLS 1.3.

DEFAULT

       NULL

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

       This option works only with the following TLS backends: GnuTLS and OpenSSL

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           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");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
