Hello,
i have a doubt about the tomcat. I'm using tomcat 4.0 has my web server, and i have configure it to support ssl, but for some reason my servlet cannot access the certificate that the client is presenting:
java.security.cert.X509Certificate cert = (java.security.cert.X509Certificate) httpRequest.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate"
;
the variable cert is always null, but the ssl connection is estabilish.
Now my doubts :
Can't tomcat acesss to this ssl variable ?
Do i have to use apache has my front web server to pass the request to tomcat and then have acess to the ssl variables ?
thanks you very much any help
