Has anyone got SSL working with client authentication?  If so, please
help.
 
I have no issues with standard SSL.
 
Standard SSL:
 
keytool -genkey -alias <alias> -keystore <keystore> -kayalg RSA
 
Answer all the questions
 
Edit server.xml file.
 
I am then away and working with SSL for self signed certificates.  No
issues here for me whatsoever.
 
Client authentication:
 
I am having absolutely no luck with client authentication.
 
Is there a step by step guide to get this working for client
authentication?
 
Currently I seemed to believe that my client certificate needs to be a
PKCS12 format.  I do not know if this statement is true or false, and I
do not know enough about openssl to ensure that I have a client
certificate in this format.  Can I create my client keystore using
keytool, then export the certificate, and somehow change the format type
before I import it into the keystore on my server as a trusted
certificate?  Do I need to use openssl at all?
 
I can't even access a page using client authentication using a browser.
 
When I use a browser, I accept the server certificate, and I get an
exception, and the socket closes (before I select my client
certificate), why?  I first need to get past this step.
 
Regards,
Andrew
