Hi!  The manual contains example code for a client-authenticated
session, for X.509 one reference would be:

http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/html_node/Simple-client-example-with-X_002e509-certificate-support.html#Simple-client-example-with-X_002e509-certificate-support

In general, allocate a X.509 credential structure, and set the private
key and CA certificates using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file and
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file respectively.
