    Secure Communication Methods

      I am new to J2EE and JBoss. I have been able to build an client application that uses RMI and JAAS to interact with a JBoss server. I need to secure the data being passed between the client and server (important customer data) but haven't been able to find a good example on how to do this. I feel like I am overlooking something.

      Can someone provide me with the options and what they consider "the best practice" for JBoss secure communications?

      Can someone point me to some tutorials/examples of how to send encrypted data between a client (not a webpage) and JBoss server using RMI?

      Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

          I believe "RMI over SSL" is the ketwords I was missing. Does anyone have sample code for a client application. I am getting this error.

            The problem was a incorrectly created keystore.
