Accesss ssl certificate information

[skn81]

Greetings!


I set clientAuth=true in my server.xml to use client ssl (two-way-ssl) which is handled fine by Tomcat. Is it now possible to access the SSL certificate (information) from a session bean?

A simple example/tutorial would be nice...


Thanks for your help!

Hi again


Does noboby have an answer to my problem? Or am I just posting my question in the wrong forum? (but neither Security nor Tomcat really seam to fit..)

Once again: How do I get certificate information from the client ssl auth (which is handled in tomcat) in one of my session beans?

@In private FacesContext facesContext;

(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[]) ((HttpServletRequest) facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequest()).getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");

Thanks skn81!
Your welcome skn81!
