As Mark pointed out, this exposes the TLS bug > CVE-2009-355 so be warned! So, setting <auth-method> to CLIENT-CERT triggers an SSL renegotiation. What if the <Connector> is set to clientAuth="want" or clientAuth="true"? Will the initial SSL negotiation carry the client certificate and therefore avoid CVE-2009-355?
