Before you install the package you now should prepare the SSL       |
| certificate system by running the 'make certificate' command.       |
| For different situations the following variants are provided:       |
|                                                                     |
| % make certificate TYPE=dummy    (dummy self-signed Snake Oil cert) |
| % make certificate TYPE=test     (test cert signed by Snake Oil CA) |
| % make certificate TYPE=custom   (custom cert signed by own CA)     |
| % make certificate TYPE=existing (existing cert)                    |
|        CRT=/path/to/your.crt [KEY=/path/to/your.key]                |
|                                                                     |
| Use TYPE=dummy    when you're a  vendor package maintainer,         |
| the TYPE=test     when you're an admin but want to do tests only,   |
| the TYPE=custom   when you're an admin willing to run a real server |
| and TYPE=existing when you're an admin who upgrades a server.       |
| (The default is TYPE=test)    

To be really trusted you have to get your certificated signed by Commercial
certificate provider such as Thawte (www.thawte.com) or Verisign
(www.verisign.com)

Subject: problem with server certificate


hi there,
I have apache +mod_ssl + openssl + tomcate installed
at my linux machine and which is runnign well with
https and http protocol in browser.  
Now I tried to create one java application to make
securely connect with https server through the jsse
library.  

Whole scenariao is, I made my own server certificate
type 3 with rsa 

when i run my rpogram it gaves me following exception
with my https server.
 
javax.net.ssl.sslException: untrusted server cert
chain

now this is the exception becos my certificate is not
in truststore.

How can i give my certificate in truststore.  

Becos my program is working with any other https
website like https://www.verisign.com
but not work with my server url.
Can you explain me how can I create trusted
certificate?
or how can I make my certificate trusted to any java
application wich use jsse?

I dont know where is the problem.
my java program is below 

public 
                             class Test 
                             { 
                               public 
                               static 
                               void 
                               main(String []
arstring) 
                               { 
                                 try 
                                 { 
                                   new
java.net.URL("https://"; + arstring[0] +
"/").getContent(); 
                                 } 
                                 catch (Exception
exception) 
                                 { 
                                  
exception.printStackTrace(); 
                                 } 
                               } 
                             } 

Any help will be appriciated.
