It is rumoured that all existing clients that support TLS/SSL use RSA
encryption. To make this work you need to set, in the server,
&'debuglog'&. The filename can be adjusted with the &'tag'& option, which
may access any variables already defined. The logging may be adjusted with
the &'opts'& option, which takes the same values as the &`-d`& command-line
