Is anybody working on this?  I'm willing to take a crack at it if not. 

I do have a couple of questions on how it should be implemented.  The socket 
factory used to create the SSLSockets is instantiated by the ORB based on a 
property value, rather than instantiated by the Geronimo configurator code.  
This means that socket factory code needs to call back into G. to somehow 
retrieve the KeyStore information.  What's the appropriate mechanism to 
retrieve the Keystore GBean?  Is is safe to assume this is a singleton, or can 
different ORB instances be configured to use different keystores?

  URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2002
  Project: Geronimo
 Type: Improvement
 Security: public(Regular issues) 
   Components: security, CORBA
 Versions: 1.1
 Reporter: Aaron Mulder
  Fix For: 1.1


 OpenEJB initializes CORBA using a plain SSL socket factory and therefore only 
 sees SSL keystore/trust store settings configured as system properties.  We 
 should change this to use the KeystoreManager API instead.

Ok, another question as I drill a little deeper into this.  The server side of 
the CORBA connection requires creating an SSLServerSocketFactory instance 
(which KeystoreManager handles).  The client side requires creating an 
SSLSocketFactory instance (which is not currently handled by the 
KeystoreManager API, but I'll add that).  The client and server ends do not 
necessarily need to be configured with the same truststore and keystore values 
(but they can be).  Which approach should be used here:

1)  Single set of properties used to configure both the client-side and 
server-side connections.  Note that an ORB may require both types since it can 
be acting as both a server and a client to access remote references. 

2)  Different properties for the client and server.

3)  Some other approach I've not considered?
