Re: Apache Tomcat, SSL and client certs

[Warner Onstine <on...@intalio.com>]

First start by uncommenting the ssl section in server.xml (or your local
copy of it), then look through sslsocketfactory for the different parameters
that you can set.  Sorry I can't think of all of them right now.  One of the
params is clientAuth which you can set to true or false (it defaults to
false).

If you need any more help please feel free to respond to this on tomcat-dev
as I'm sure it would help others.
