Thank you very much for your reply. No, they are self signed. cert.pem
was generated from a .p12 file, in turn generated from a self signed
my.key and my.crt. (viewing it as text reveals an public and private
key)

Looks like a handy option. However I havn't been able to get it to
produce anything meaningful from it. Beyond the default http opts, the
only relavent option (in the commented out section) is
CURLOPT_SSLCERT. By the way -vv was a typo on my part i meant
-v(--VERBOSE) just so I can debug this issue.

I've had a fairly long go at this before bothering this list again.
But I must be missing something fundamental in the api. As this works
just fine as a curl command line.
