Apache SSL and Tomcat SSL

[Farshad Gheshlaghi <fa...@enreach.com>]

Hi all,

I am using Apache(with mod_ssl) with Tomcat in the Linux environment. I have
created a certificate for Apache and also another one for Tomcat. So, I can
have Apache_ssl and also standalone Tomcat_ssl. Now, let's assume that I am
going to get some SECURE information from another machine by using both
apache_ssl and tomcat_ssl. I understand that when I send a https from apache
to tomcat the 8443 port is going to be used. But is this means that
information flow from tomcat to the other machine (and vise versa) is also
secure? If this is the case, which certificate is going to be used?

I really appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanks,
