Client authentication for single servlet

In Tomcat 5.0.x Is it possible to for a servlet to get a client's 
certificate without forcing the whole server to use client 
authentication?

in server.xml:
clientAuth=true - stops everyone accessing via https
clientAuth=want - secure servlet displays no content
clientAuth=false - 
request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate") doesn't 
get the cert

thanks,
Alistair
