.SH "NAME"
upscli_init \- Initialize upsclient module specifying security properties\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
#include <upsclient\&.h>
.fi
.sp
.nf
int upscli_init(int certverify, const char *certpath,
                       const char *certname, const char *certpasswd);
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBupscli_init()\fR function initialize upsclient module and set many SSL\-related properties: \fIcertverify\fR to 1 makes certificate verification required for all SSL connections and \fIcertpath\fR is the location of certificate database\&.
.sp
If compiled with OpenSSL, certpath refers to a \&.pem file containing certificates and if compiled with NSS, certpath refers to a directory containing database files\&.
.sp
If compiled with NSS and using SSL, you can specify \fIcertname\fR the name of the certificate to send to upsd and \fIcertpasswd\fR the password used to decrypt certificate private key\&.
.sp
You can call \fBupscli_add_host_cert\fR(3) to register specific host security policy before initialize connections to them\&.
.sp
You must call \fBupscli_cleanup\fR(3) when exiting application\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
The \fBupscli_init()\fR function returns 1 on success, or \-1 if an error occurs\&.
