Holds local certificate to be used for authentication.

An ICertificate object.  Holds Certificate (ICertificate implementation) or private key (IKeys implementation).

[Set] object.Certificate [= ICertificate]

The Certificate Property syntax has these parts:

If you don't plan to deal with certificates or private keys, most probably you will never use this property. But - if you plan to connect to servers that require client certificate for the connection, or you plan to create and use private/public keys for connecting for SSH servers, you will need to specify this property.

This property should be set to valid ICertificate object which is part of our 'Certificate Management library' shipped with the installation package of wodTelnetDLX. It will allow you to Load, Save, Generate... keys and certificates which can be used directly by the server, or should by signed by 3rd party authority and then used with the server. It can combine both OpenSSL type certificates, as well ones located in your Microsoft Windows crypto stores - and handle them transparently.

Setting certificate is really easy. Typically, you could do it like this:

Set Telnet1.Certificate = New Certificate
Telnet1.Certificate.GenerateKey 0 'RSAkey
Telnet1.Certificate.SaveKey "C:\mykey.txt"

or later on

Set Telnet1.Certificate = New Certificate
Telnet1.Certificate.LoadKey "C:\mykey.txt"

wodTelnetDLX internally will never create this object (it only uses it), so if you don't plan to use ICertificate object, you don't have to distribute wodCertificate.DLL with your application.
