    JNDI/EJB HTTPS TUNNEL through proxies

    lieting

      I'd like to tunnel all traffic through https so that I can go through any proxies support HTTPS. There is a section in the JBossBook about using SSL, can I proxy this SSL? If so, how do I do it?

      Thanks in advance,

          Yes.

          This are a number of steps.
          I'm not going to go through everything here,
          you should be able to find the details in the book.
          1) Enable the HTTPS listener in jetty or tomcat,
          this requires a keystore.
          2) Make sure the client has the certificate,
          either thirdparty or a keystore on the client.
          3) Change the clients to use JNDI over https
          4) Deploy the ejbs over https

          Point 4 is easier with 3.2 because the config
          supports multiple protocols per ejb.
          3.0 only allows one per ejb so you would
          have to deploy it mutliple times if you also
          want plain RMI access.
