Re: Obtaining SSL Certificate in Servlet/JSP Page?

Hi,

	A little follow-up to my own message, sorry.

	- You have to use the ajp13 interface from Apache to Tomcat.
	- You have to have your apache properly set up (we had an
	  error in ours).
	- The certificate is then available as the 
	  javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate attribute on the 
	  HttpServletRequest object associated with the request,
	  the cipher suite is available as:
	  javax.servlet.request.cipher_suite, and the SSL session
	  is javax.servlet.request.ssl_session (depending on
	  exactly what parameters you've specified in your
	  mod_jk.conf file (this is with all the default values
	  selected).

	Thanks to Thomas Bezdicek for pointing me in the right 
direction.
