Hi,
I need autheticate ONLY with client certificate (i.e., I don't want
to check any user's database) . I did that follow:
1. I write a "X509Realm", with a method "authenticate" that
only check the validity of each certificate in the
certification's chain (don't check if the user exists in
any database).
2. Declare this new class in
"org/apache/catalina/realm/mbeans-descriptors.xml" and
"rg/apache/catalina/mbeans/mbeans-descriptors.xml".
3. Edit "server.xml" and configure the realm.
4. Edit "web.xml" to set the auth-method to "CLIENT-CERT"
5. Put "X509Realm.class" and "mbeans-descriptors.xml" in
"server/classes", with the correct path.
6. Restart Tomcat.
Now, I can authenticate with X509 certificate, and get the
client certificate with
getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate"). But,
sometimes, this method returns null. Why?
regards
