RE: Tomcat 3.2 and SSL (2)

Wellington,

The big thing that I am a bit confused on is the link among Tomcat,
JSSE, the JDK, and the keystore.

Is it:
1 - The Tomcat server.xml file uses values in the <connector> tag to
talk to either JSSE or the JDK.
2 - JSSE and the JDK talk and get the information from the keystore.
3 - The result is that the user gets the message about the secure site,
etc, etc.

I have to also believe then that the user that created the keystore must
be the same user that starts Tomcat.

Sorry for my naive understanding of this process,

Peter
