EJB - standalone client secure connection

[cezz]

Hi !
I wrote a client stand-alone java application which connects to an EJB to get some data from a MySQL database server. My question is how can I assure secure transmission of the information from EJB to my client ?
Please, I really don't know how to do it ! Since my client is a stand-alone application, can I use SSL with certificates ? If yes, please explain.

Best,
Cezar

Absolutely! We successfully run a stand-alone fat client
accessing jboss using SSL.

All you have to do is to modify the container parameters in standardjboss.xml to use SSL client/server socket factory than the default one.
