OK. Let me try to rephrase my question.  Please excuse me if I don't get
terminology exactly correct I am a novice user of OpenSSL and encryption in
general.

I need to make a connection to this server from my app. The server will
only allow TLS1.2 connections and requires username/password.  Other than
the additional username/password I have working code which is working
against a demo server which does not require this additional
username/password.

I am able to connect to the user using a browser by putting the
username/password into the url.  This proves that I know the correct
username/password but has no other relevance.
