Hi,

Is it possible to enable digital certs as a authentication method for the admin app. and if yes - please tell me how.

Yes. You'll need to edit the web.xml for the admin app to change the login method.


1. Re-configure the admin app to use BASIC auth.
2. Test new config.
3. Configure the app to require SSL for everything (add a transport guarantee of CONFIDENTIAL)
4. Again, test it.
5. Change to use CLIENT-CERT rather than BASIC.


You'll need to add you user certs to the user database. If you were using tomcat-users.xml then each entry would look something like:

<user username="CN=Mark Thomas, OU=Jakarta, O=Apache, L=London, ST=None, C=GB" password="null" roles="admin"/>

Mark


Thank you, Edmon
