Tomcat alias in tomcat standalone SSL

I'm trying to integrate Tomcat 3.2.1 with my application, and have modified
the implementation of SSLSocketFactory to use my keystore and trust manager.
I have a certificate in my keystore, but it has a different alias (not
tomcat) and I cannot change the alias.

Where in the tomcat source code does it specify that it will use the
'tomcat' alias for its SSL certificate? Can I change it? (I am assuming that
it uses the alias tomcat because the instructions for generating the
certificate for tomcat specifies that you should give it the alias tomcat.)

Many thanks,

Barbara Nelson.

Have you at least tried to use your certificate? if yes what errors are you
getting?. It's easy to generate your own .keystore file using JSSE if your
cert will not work.
