Passing the trustore to the client. working without it, how?

[avihaimar]

Hey,

I have a java client that work against jboss4.2 via stateless session bean.
I followed this tutorial in order to created secured transport between the client and the server:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Accessing_EJB3s_over_HTTP_HTTPS

In the tutorial it required to pass the truststore to the JVM client – like this:
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=opensource

I didn’t pass the password and its still work. Why is it still work?

Thank you
