NAME
CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME - user name to use for TLS authentication
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, char *user);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * as parameter, which should point to the null-terminated
username to use for the TLS authentication method specified with the
CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE(3) option. Requires that the CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASS-
WORD(3) option also be set.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
This feature relies in TLS SRP which does not work with TLS 1.3.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, "user");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, "secret");
