HTTPS and repository access

[Arnaud Bailly <ab...@norsys.fr>]

Hi,
I would like to use a remote repository that is served by an HTTPS 
server requiring client certificate authentication. Moreover, I want to 
use the same certificate (ie. pkcs12 file) I use in firefox.
pkcs12 files can be used as truststore and keystore (?) but I do not 
know how to tell to maven/httpclient to use client authentication. Here 
is a sample of the command line I tried and the error I got :

$> maven -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/home/myhome/cert.p12 
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=pkcs12 
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=xxxxxxx  site:generate
