Unfortunately, you have not mentioned the version of the tomcat4 package 
that you have tried. Versions prior to 4.0.4-1 were built with JDK 1.3 
so the SSL classes could not be compiled. The current versions in 
testing (4.0.4-4) and unstable (4.1.12-1) do include the SSL classes:

      6687  09-25-02 00:13 
org/apache/catalina/net/SSLServerSocketFactory.class

If you are using 4.0.3-1 from Debian 3.0 (woody), there is an 
explanation in README.Debian why the SSL classes are not included.

So if you want to use an SSL connector, you need to use the version from 
testing or unstable and JDK 1.4. I'd recommend the tomcat4 version from 
unstable since it fixes a security problem. It required some other Java 
packages from unstable, but they can be installed on Debian 3.0 without 
any problems.
