JSSE/mod_ssl or wrong mailing list
I posted this a couple of days ago and so far I have had no response so am I
asking a wrong question in the wrong mailing list does anyone know of a
better place where my tomcat ssl encryption questions can be asked?
I had been following the recent disscusion of login + ssl which has been very
useful info for me.
Also does anyone know which is better to use the mod_ssl or JSSE
ORIGINAL MESSAGE
HI
I have just followed the Tomcat SSL HOWTO and I am able to get my
https://localhost:443/ page. I then right-click on my mouse to get up the
page properties;
Protocol: Hyper Text Transfer With Privacy
Type: HTML Document
Connection: Not Encrypted
Address(URL): https://localhost:443/index.html
Size: 2572 bytes
but it says the page is not encrypted why does this happen? should it not
state some sought of encryption like 128 bit?
I also tried the Apache + mod_ssl HOWTO and I do get an encrypted connection
which says the following;
Connection: TLS 1.0, RC4 with 128 bit encryption (High); RSA with 1024 bit
exchange
I have apache 1.3.26 (Linux box) + mod_jk + Tomcat 4.04 (Windows box)
The Tomcat server in my environment handles login forms processes them and
then puts the user to their homepage. I wish to encrypt this login process. I
don't think I need to use apache +mod_ssl to do any connection encryption
because the login form is sent to the Tomcat server.
I cannot figure out what I am missing? Can anyone help please?
Thanxs in Advance
