Developers: How to configure tomcat to accept certificates from a certain CA?

[ch...@netscape.net]

I am using Tomcat 4.1.18 under my Win2K system, and I am trying to do mutual SSL authentication via certificates. 

I have installed both my personal and the CA's certificates in my IE browser. 

When I visit my Web server which requires client authentication via HTTPS, IE certainly brings up the dialog box for me to choose a certificate, but it does not give me a list of my certificates to choose from!

Please click the following link to get a better picture of my problem.

Do any of you know what this problem is please?  And how can fix this? 

My friend reminded me that I might have to configure the Web server to ask for certificates from my CA, which I don't know how to do.  Do my dear developers know about this?  I took a look at the server.xml file, can't see anything about this.  The tomcat-users don't have no clue.

Thanks a lot.
