Well,
Just in short we went trough a whole discussion with IBM and apparently its not that common to want
to do this from code. They come the suggestion pretty quick to write your own keymanager, wich is
really not that difficult. I just havent found the time nor a way to send a param from axis to this custom
keymanager class to instruct it what certificate alias to use ? It seems to be uncharted teritories as i
have discovered the hard way...

Onderwerp: RE: how to sepcify certificate alias
We are using IBM implementation.
We want to deploy two applications into the same JVM and what we have done
so far is
to define the system properties directly as JVM parameters. So both
applications share the
same system properties, and hence the same keystore file path.
Even we put these definitions into the application code, I think that won't
work either
because the second application that runs the code for setting system
properties will
change the system properties values set by the first application at run
time (the first
application refers to the application that runs the system properties
values setting code first).
I really do not understand how come JSSE does not allow specifying the
alias
while the keystore file can store multiple certificates.
Thanks for the comments.

Hi,
Well the short answer is it depends on the ssl library you use, for
instance sun or ibm.
Both, as far as i know, dont allow you to do this out of the box. In my
experience they
they both take the first client certificate found in the key store. We just
use a different
key store per client. You could write your own keymanager class wich
subclasses the
keymanager of your ssl implementation, but i have not found a working way
yet on
using that from within axis.

Onderwerp: how to sepcify certificate alias
I have two applications that access a web service. We use HTTPS for
authenticatoin and encryption.
We can get these applications access the service with one certificate
stored in one keystore file,
but we want them to use two different certificats. The two certificates can
be saved in one keystore file.
Both applications run inside the same application server instance (JVM).
The problem is that we can use system property to specify where the
keystore file is, but I can not find
in JSSE document how a certificate alias is specified to tell which
applicaiton is using which certificate.
Any idea?
Thanks
