RE: Tomcat SSL client authentication problem with Internet Explore

2003-08-22 Thread Ratón Lacarcel, Antonio
Hi again...

CA cert is installed in MSIE's root certificates (also in  Mozilla root certificates) 
but the box is still empty.

Any idea?

Thank you!!!

I'm guessing that you didn't install your CA's cert in MSIE's root
certificates.  Since Tomcat will ask for certs signed by your CA, if MSIE
can't find any (that it can verify the chain with), you get an empty box.

Hi!

I have a problem with Tomcat 4.0.6 and SSL client authentication. When I use
the Internet Explorer browser (v6.0) and I try to access the secure URL (for
example https://whatever:8043), an empty list of certificates is presented.
However, if I use Mozilla 1.4 or Netscape  4.76, the client certificates are
presented and the secure pages are available.

The following environment is used:

 + jdk1.3.1_08
 + Microsoft Certificate Server
 + Tomcat 4.0.6

My server.xml file has the following element:

  Connector className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector
   port=8443 minProcessors=5 maxProcessors=75
   enableLookups=true
   acceptCount=10 debug=3  scheme=https secure=true
connectionTimeout=2
   useURIValidationHack=false
Factory className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteServerSocketFactory
   clientAuth=true
   keystoreFile=C:\Documents and Settings\araton\.keystore
   keystorePass=changeit protocol=TLS/
/Connector

I have also created the keystores and the cacerts (for trusted certificates)
files. Tomcat also finds the cacerts file because I've added the following
parameters in the Tomcat enviroment variables (and because I've seen it in
the debug console):
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=c:\path_to_cacerts\cacerts
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit

I have defined my own CA, my server-tomcat certificate signed by the CA and
in order to create the client certificates, I've used the Certificate Server
web tool, asking for a web certificate using each browser
(Netscape-IE-Mozilla) and installing the client certificate from the
browser.

Could you help me please?

If more info is needed, please tell it to me and I will try to explain the
problem with higher detail.

Thanks in advance and sorry if my english is too simple...
