Why doesn't SSL fire up (Tomcat 6.0.14), Java 1.5 (jsse)

[Alpert, Stephen R (GE Healthcare)]

I create the keystore per instructions. My server.xml was modified
thusly:
 
    <Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" 
               keystoreFile="c:\Documents and Settings\myname\.keystore"
keystorePass="changeit" />

When I make a connection to https://localhost:8443/ my browser just sits
and spins.  
I see the message sent from the browser but I don't get either a reply
or an error.
 
thanks,
