Andre,
At a quick glance, it appears that there is one problem that I've experienced that the SSL guide doesn't seem to cover. Presumably, once you've created your self-certified certificate, you added it to your JVM's cacerts file using the keytool? I've found that a self-signed certificate may not work unless you pass the -trustcacerts option when doing the import. Not sure why that is, and your experience may vary based on the JRE version you're using.

Hi,
I have set up a Tomcat 4.1 server to use SSL, with the help of a self-certified certificate, ie with no trusted third party certifying it. I now try getting my client, which uses 'commons-httpclient-2.0-rc2' to connect. When I do, I get the following exception:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found
Is there a way to get self-certified certifcates to be automatically trusted. I must admit I am a newbie when it comes to SSL, so any help would be very much appreciated.
regards
Andre
