configuring the tomcat-6 to support list of user certificates

Hi,

Can anyone give some idea to configure the tomcat-6.0.18 to enable SSL (
https ) and also to support the list of user certificates to access a sample
web application
I have the user certificate and also the CA certficate , I have checked the
docs of tomcat but i was not clear to configure it if we have both user and
CA certifcates

Thanks & Regards,
shashi
