Viewing Encrypted data in SSL? Is it possible?

[luthriaajay]

Hi,

I have configured Apache 1.3.20 for Windows NT and SSL.
I have also configured my httpd.conf file to listen to
Port 80 anf 443.

Now,I am testing 2 servlets on the Application Server
(IBM Websphere 4) on Apache 1.3.20

I am sending data from one servlet to another servlet
which decrypts the data sent and displays it.

ie : First I am invoking the Servlet that receives the
the secured data by :

https://127.0.0.1:443/servlet/Secure

Then I am opening another browser and the URL is:

http://127.0.0.1/servlet/SendData

Is there any way I can be sure that the data sent
by servlet SendData is encrypted?

Can I modify any Apache files so that I can view the
encrypted data? I want to be sure that the DATA is
in encypted format.

I have done the above in Tomcat which works fine.
I can view the encrypted data on my console and for
this I have modified my Tomcat files.

Please can anyone tell me if its possible?

regards

Use a softare or hardware sniffer to look at the packets being sent by the machine. A google search turned up:
