    Description

      QSslSocket supports setting the PeerVerifyMode on a server to request that the client identify itself with a certificate. However, if the client didn't supply a certificate originally, the connection will fail.

      OpenSSL provides a callback for when the server requests this during negotiation. QSslSocket can then emit a signal, requesting that the user provide such a certificate.

      See: http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb.html
