Hey folks,
I am complete novice JBOSS user begging for some assistance.
I have a windows 2K3 Server that is currently running JBOSS (JBOSS is running as a service).
JBOSS is currently hosting (not sure if that is the right word) an application on the Windows 2K3 server.
This application has a web front end which users to connect to using IE.
I want my users IE (Web client) connection to the JBOSS hosted app to be encrypted using SSL. i.e. a padlock in the bottom corner of IE should appear.
Any help would be much appreciated. I have tried googling this but the instructions are bit complicated for a novice like me.
Note: I am not planing using a certificate from a CA.
To set up SSL/HTTPS, see http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/guides/webguide/r2/en/html/ch9.https.sect.html
You can generate your own certificate using the keytool utility that comes with the JDK.
