Also, while we are at it : this whole SSL area is - I believe -
hopelessly confusing for anyone (aka me) who does not spend a
considerable amount of time dealing with that kind of setup.
Do you know of any reasonably short and concise introductory article on
the www ? Something which really explains the basics (and the why's) of
what you need to set up a HTTPS webserver, be it Tomcat or something else ?
I believe that some kind of "wrap-up" article in the FAQ would really
help, and you seem to be our resident expert here.
Maybe this?

You can download a PDF of the first chapter that explains a lot of the
basics for free.
I'm in the middle of reading the whole book and it is really a good
read. But there's quite a lot of terminology to get used to for
beginners, so probably not easy to write a short but useful SSL primer
in the Tomcat wiki.
