Dear All

My developer give me a .war file which I place it as 
jboss/server/default/deploy/test.war

Thus I have around 5 .war placed in the server. All the apps are 
presently accessed using https://myorg.com:8080/test1/, 
https://myorg.com:8080/test2/ ... and so on.

Next I want to implement client auth for certain apps.

How do i go about it.??

Regards & Thanks
