Hi,

I have a ca signed p12 file from which I can extract both a certificate and 
key in pem format - I found some info (http://www.junlu.com/msg/85393.html) 
which states that you can use a p12 file as a keystore in tomcat by adding 
the following into the conf/server.xml file:

 <Connector port="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
               maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
               enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
               acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreType="PKCS12"
                keystoreFile="file.p12" keystorePass="somePass" />


When I tried this it failed with the error message:

org.apache.tomcat.util.net.puretls.PureTLSSocketFactory init
