## Description

To indicate that a given CA certificate is trusted by the user, the certificate can be loaded using the `ne_ssl_load_ca` function. The `filename` parameter given must specify the location of a PEM-encoded CA certificate.

The SSL library in use by neon may include a default set of CA certificates; calling the `ne_ssl_load_default_ca` function will indicate that these CAs are trusted by the user.

If no CA certificates are loaded, or the server presents a certificate which is invalid in some way, then the certificate must be manually verified (see ), otherwise the connection will fail.

## Return value

Both `ne_ssl_load_ca` and `ne_ssl_load_default_ca` functions return `0` on success, or non-zero on failure.

## Examples

Load the CA certificate stored in `/path/to/cacert.pem`:

    &egsess;

    if (ne_ssl_load_ca(sess, "/path/to/cacert.pem")) {
       printf("Could not load CA cert: %s\n", ne_get_error(sess));
    }
