The client app in the demo does not include certificates. Examine the
server app code and cut and paste the certificate code. That will
enable your client app to send a certificate.
To create a new certificate, at least how I did it on WinNT, was to
run testss.bat after modifying the appropriate .cnf files.
Hope this helps...
