Hi Patrick. Could you explain this a little further? Actually creating a 
keystore using keytool of course has nothing to do with Tomcat per se, so I 
assume you mean that the keystore created might not work with Tomcat. Under 
what conditions would a keystore generated by one JDK not work with another 
JDK? In testing, I was able to generate a keystore on a Windoze box with JDK 
1.3.1, copy it over to a Linux box running 1.3.0, and successfully start up 
Tomcat and access a page over SSL. If you have a properly-formatted JKS store, 
why would it matter which JDK produced it?
