I seem to remember that there is a way to do peer-to-peer (so, not call
"--server" and "--client") but still do TLS - by having the "TLS server"
configured with --ca, --cert, --key and "--tls-server", and the peer
with "--tls-client".

But this is more from stumbling across the options than from actually
having tried it.

(--server is a macro that among others activates --tls-server and all
the to-multiple-clients thing, while --client implies --tls-client, 
but both --tls-* options can be used standalone)
