I  have setup my  apache+mod_ssl (for the first time), created my own ca
and server certs.

Now I want to grant access to a specific tree of my webserver only to
those clients, which have a cert from my ca.
I thought
<Directory /web/securearea>
SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth 1
</Directory>

would do the job, created a client cert and imported into a browser.
Using this cert I can access the protected area of my server.
Unfortunately I am requested for a certificate for every
subsequent access to that area. This is something, which I think is not
very userfriendly.
Is there a more userfriendly way to deal with this situation?

Thanks
Norbert Wegener
