Hello, OK, I've done it : the SSL authentication of my tomcat server works pretty fine. I'm currently using port 8443, though. But this is not my question.
The real question is a bit more weird. If I try & connect to my server on port 8443, but with just http protocol (no encryption), Tomcat responds by sending a file ! It is a .bin file which name is : - either the context name of my request (for instance, if I ask http://myserver.com/qwerty the file is called qwerty.bin) - either a random (?) name if I ask the context name of my webapp. Do you have an idea why & how to get rid of this, anyone ?
