Excellent suggestions and the link at the bottom . On my local machine using keystore and keypass was not working while I was configuring a WAR on https. I made use of truststoreFile and truststorePass in connector tag. e.g
< Connector SSLEnabled="true" acceptCount="100" connectionTimeout="20000" executor="tomcatThreadPool" keyAlias="tomcat" keystoreFile="${catalina.base}/conf/tomcat.keystore" keystorePass="changeme" truststoreFile="${catalina.base}/conf/tomcat.keystore" truststorePass="changeme" maxKeepAliveRequests="15" port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol" redirectPort="8443" scheme="https" secure="true"/> On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 10:05 PM, Jeffrey Janner < jeffrey.jan...@polydyne.com> wrote: > Looking into implemented two-factor Auth for Tomcat with first factor > being our current userid/password form. > I figured that the second factor could be Client Authentication using SSL, > as it seems readily available in Tomcat. > Aside from the wonderful Tomcat documentation on configuring the > <connector> element, does anyone else have any suggested reading on the > subject? > Any gotchas I should look for? > > Jeffrey Janner > __________________________________________________________________________ > > Confidentiality Notice: This Transmission (including any attachments) may > contain information that is privileged, confidential, and exempt from > disclosure under applicable law.
