Well... I successfully connected to a https server that does not require certificate with httpClient: the ssl guide explain very well how to do this. But I did not spot anything about client authentication....
Maybe I am blind, but I need help! :) Is it in the SSLContext.init() that I should specify a KeyManager that I implemented? How do httpClient handles it? what calls does it do to the KeyManager? > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Ortwin Glück [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Envoyé : mercredi 7 janvier 2004 11:23 > À : Commons HttpClient Project > Objet : Re: ssl authentication by certificate > > > Lionel PASQUIER wrote: > > Hello and Happy New Year! > > Thanks, same to you... > > > I was just curious to know if httpClient supports ssl > authentication with certificate and private key? > > > > That is I want to use httpClient to connect to a web site > with my private key / certificate from a keystore. > > Is it possible? > > > > I could not find a word about it in the docs... > > > > Sorry if the question is dumb.... > > > > Lionel > > > Please have a look at our SSL Guide: > http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/sslguide.html > > Client certificates are a feature of your SSL implementation and are > thus not directly covered there.
