Re: Client Auth / Certificates

[Ortwin Gl�ck]

It sure would be useful however I am not sure if it is possible. I never 
used a standard JSSE implementation. We used SSLava in our projects 
(because it's supposed to be faster) and SSLava is does not have a JSSE 
interface. So I wrote a SSLSocketFactory that configured SSLava to use a 
specific client certificate. Maybe with a JSSE compatible implementation 
this can be done in a generic way. The implementation that I have is 
very SSLava specific and probably of no use to anybody else.

Correct.  I have completed the code using javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection 
(Creating a special keymanager (for my crypto framework), setting up the 
SSLContext, creating SSLSocketFactory, etc.) .  I was just hoping that 
HttpClient had a Socket factory already written for this functionality, as 
it would buy me a few other things, mainly timeouts.    I would be glad to 
write the Socket factory myself, but I am unfortunately on a short 
schedule.    Would this functionality be of use to anyone else?  If it is 
something people would find useful, I would gladly contribute it.

Thanks,
