I tried this on different systems (*nix and XP) and hence the 
differences in my excerpts. but in each case, the connector
config correct refers to keystore. i am sorry i quoted different
configs - will stick to *nix from now on.

i am confused about one thing: whil keystore is explicitly specified 
in connector config, what about the truststore?

i assume truststore stores the trusted CA certs (as opposed to
private keys/identity cert). Is this correct?

Why does not connector config not refer to truststore config ?
Or is that by default become ${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/security/cacerts?

What is the relation/differences (as far as tomcat is concerned) between
keystore, truststore and {JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/security/cacerts?

with sincere thanx!
