mTLS did not work for me.

I didn't invent my own crypto, but I used mutual HMAC authentication with preshared secret and pluggable hash functions. It is an evolutionary step for a server side PHP script that relied on IP
address alone to verify its client.

If anyone thinks it is worth a look, it is here:

It would probably be prudent to have a peer review of the code before it is given for people trying
to authenticate the VPNs with PAM.

Kind regards,
Mirsad

If you feel the pam TLS calls needs more than server side cert verification, 
you should look into client authentication, eg mTLS. Don’t invent your own 
crypto.
