mod_auth_ccert/README: Add setting to ensure Prosdy asks for client certificate This used to be the default for all services, but since it triggers annoying popups in web browsers it was inverted in Prosody and only s2s enables it, so it needs to be explicitly enabled for c2s again. See trunk 115b5e32d960 Thanks debacle

summary: Client Certificate authentication module
...

Introduction
============

This module implements PKI-style client certificate authentication. You
will therefore need your own Certificate Authority. How to set that up
is beyond the current scope of this document.

Configuration
=============


    authentication = "ccert"
    certificate_match = "xmppaddr" -- or "email"

    c2s_ssl = {
        cafile = "/path/to/your/ca.pem";
        capath = false; -- Disable capath inherited from built-in default
        verify = {"peer"; "client_once"}; -- Ask for client certificate
    }


Compatibility
=============

  ----------------- --------------
  trunk             Works
  0.10 and later    Works
  0.9 and earlier   Doesn't work
  ----------------- --------------
