- In a <filename>pg_hba.conf</filename> record specifying certificate
2046
- authentication, the authentication option <literal>clientcert</literal> is
2047
- assumed to be <literal>verify-ca</literal> or <literal>verify-full</literal>,
2048
- and it cannot be turned off since a client certificate is necessary for this
