New question #209579 on ADCH++:
https://answers.launchpad.net/adchpp/+question/209579

According to the ADC specification here:  

http://adc.sourceforge.net/versions/ADC-0.12.html

6.5ADCS - Secure ADC <work-in-progress>

6.5.1Introduction
Secure ADC connections can be established using a TLS tunnel, both for hub and for client connections. Certificates can be used to authenticate both hub and user, for example by making the hub the root CA, and only allow clients signed by the hub to connect. Ephemeral keys should be use to ensure forward secrecy when possible.

How do I do that with ADCH++  ?????  Do I have to make the certificates differently then in the examples in the setup guide?  I would really like to use this.

6.5.2Client-Hub encryption
TLS client-hub connections can be initiated either by negotiating the feature “ADCS” on connection or by using the protocol adcs:// when initiating the connection. Hubs can choose to request a certificate for the user on login, and use this certificate to replace password-based login.

Is it possible for ADCH++ to use passwords, and also verify the clients certs against signed certs in the servers /trusted directory like above?  it would be nice to have both.

Thanks!
