Actually, the server is IBM WAS and the client is running in Tomcat which runs 
on JRE6, I assume it uses JSSE libraries from jre6. I never faced this problem 
if the same client program runs on IBM WAS which uses IBM's java runtime and 
SSL handlers. So it could be a JRE problem rather than Tomcat's, in fact 
subsequent to my last post, I got the same situation by porting the client 
program to a plain java application. I know for sure which cacerts is being 
used and listing cacerts shows the required cert.  I will try in JSSE forums 
too.

Eh?

So you've imported a Tomcat jar as a dependency, into your IBM WebSphere 
application then?  Which jar have you imported?
