I have Apache Tomcat 8 working ok with https when I connect to my web page 
using a recent browser (desktop) or iPhone for example. However this specific 
application is designed to run on a Motorola MC9090 hand held wireless barcode 
scanner running a relatively old version of Windows Mobile. The browser on that 
device can only load the HTTP page and not the HTTPS page, giving a unable to 
open page message. Speaking to a “expert” on these scanners the consensus of 
opinion is that the type of encryption used by Apache Tomcat 8 is more up to 
date than the mobile devices browser can support. As it does not appear likely 
that the mobile devices are going to be updated any time soon I was wondering 
if its possible to force Tomcat to accept deprecated protocols rather than be 
forced to revert to plain HTTP.

Any ideas or ideally an example of how this might look in a config file would 
be most appreciated.


Many thanks


Dave G
