Set a TLS Client Certificate from a PEM

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.SetSslClientCertPem, which loads and configures a TLS client certificate and private key from PEM data or a PEM file.

The file path is relative to the application's current working directory. An absolute path may also be used. Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.

integer li_rc
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Socket
string ls_PemPassword
integer li_BTls
integer li_MaxWaitMs

li_Success = 0

loo_Socket = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Socket.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Socket")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Socket
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

//  The file path is relative to the application's current working directory.  An absolute path
//  may also be used.  Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
//  The PEM password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
ls_PemPassword = "myPemPassword"

//  Load and configure the TLS client certificate and private key from a PEM file.  Configure the
//  client certificate before connecting.
li_Success = loo_Socket.SetSslClientCertPem("qa_data/client.pem",ls_PemPassword)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Socket.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Socket
    return
end if

li_BTls = 1
li_MaxWaitMs = 5000
li_Success = loo_Socket.Connect("example.com",5000,li_BTls,li_MaxWaitMs)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Socket.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Socket
    return
end if

Write-Debug "Connected with mutual TLS."
