Team: When tomcat is configured to support client side certificates for authentication-what method does it call in a realm package?
For instance for form and uid/password authentication it calls the method public Principal authenticate(String username, String credentials) For a certificate based access model is there another method tomcat will call in the realm module? I am trying to add certificate support to my realm module and do not see much info on this? I would assume that Tomcat would support calling into a realm module when client side certificates are enabled or is this handled differently and outside of the domain of realm modules-please elaborate if so? I may start the document on how to build realm modules as it has been marked as a fixme for quite some time if the group thinks this would be helpful. Thanks for the assist on the above, Tony
