Unfortunately, it is impossible to get the user's certificate with JRun
(or any other servlet engine). In its wisdom, MS has decided to flaunt
the specs. So, what they do instead is to extract the certificate
contents and put them in as environment variables that you can get in
your servlet. (But, JRun does not list them when you run thru the
environment varirables enumeration; they are there however.) You can get
a list using this perl file.
Dumpenv.pl:
print "Content-type: text/plain\r\n\r\n";
foreach $key ( keys( %ENV ) )
{
print "${key} = ", $ENV{ $key }, "\n";
}
Unfortunately, conspicuously absent is the user's public key.
