 CLIENT-CERT authentication is supported.


That is fine, but how can I use the CLIENT-CERT information in my
applications?
In the client certificates should be a name and/or customer number in
the usual fields. I want my application to use e.g. the customer number
for further authorization.

Hi,

we'd like to use our Tomcat with ssl and client certificates.

Does anybody know if the user information (of the user-certificate) can
be used to authenticate?

Tomcat is 5.5.7

File a bug at suse.

Find out if all files (e.g. the .pid) have the correct users and rights.

Kind regards, Paul

SSL with client certificates + use in application

2005-05-02 Thread Paul Puschmann
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,
we'd like use use ssl client certificates (stored on smartcards) to
secure the access to one of our servers.

Right now I use an Apache2 with mod_jk, so my apache2 is the ssl
endpoint. That's not so bad, but I am searching for a way to integrate
the user-id served by the client-certificate in our application.

An example: The user logs in with his smartcard, using his pin when
establishing the ssl-connection, and then gets to our jsp-pages
(application). Here he shouldn't get another login screen. instead the
ssl-credentials should be used.

Perhaps someone here uses something like this and give me some hints.

The Apache2 with mod_jk is optional, we could also use the Tomcat 5.5
directly with ssl if this is the only way.

Kind regards,

Paul

can't you get a packaged version from your linux distribution?

Re: Access denied with Apache + Tomcat config

 All,
 
 I believe that I found my problem, and for the sake of posterity I'm
 posting it for the next poor fool who is forced to chase around the
 web and through books looking for decent documentation.
 
 When I set up Tomcat I copied the sample workers.properties file from
 the JK source.  However it turns out that the sample file uses the
 wrong worker name (compared to the name that is automatically
 generated.)  In my case, the sample file was this:
 
 worker.list=ajp13w
 
 worker.ajp13w.type=ajp13
 worker.ajp13w.host=localhost
 worker.ajp13w.port=8009
 
 However, as can be seen in my original post, the conf/auto/mod_jk.conf
 file wants to use ajp13.
 
 By changing the workers.properties file to 'ajp13' and NOT 'ajp13w'
 everything started working.
 
 
Since you adresss the worker to use in the JkMount-entry, you should use
the name of the existing worker in your virtualhost-file. (ajp13w)

jk2 for Apache2 and Tomcat 4

2005-03-14 Thread Paul Puschmann
Hi,

we want to use Apache2 (2.0.53) as a frontend for out Tomcat (4.1.31)
and don't get the right configuration for our jk2 (2.0.4).
This all runs with Java 1.4.2_06 on Debian Sarge x86.

We want to serve two or three different applications through our
apache2. Each one gets its own VirtualHost and ssl-keys and -rules.
These three application all run on (the) one tomcat.

Now I use the following configs, that I picked from some howto-pages:

Apache2:
# inside workers.properties:

[shm]
file=/var/log/apache2/shm.file
size=1048576

[channel.socket:localhost:8009]
port=8009
host=127.0.0.1

[channel.un:/usr/share/tomcat4/work/jk2.socket]
tomcatId=localhost:8009
debug=0

[ajp13:localhost:8009]
channel=channel.socket:localhost:8009

[status:status]

[uri:/status/*]
worker1=status:status

# my.domain.de as a substitute for our real dns-name
[uri:my.domain.de:443/*.jsp]
worker1=ajp13:localhost:8009


# mod_jk2.conf:
JkSet config.file /etc/apache2/workers2.properties


# inside the virtual-host:
Location /*
JkUriSet worker ajp13:localhost:8009
/Location

Directory /*/WEB-INF/*
AllowOverride None
Deny from all
/Directory


My problem is now to create the different workers an the entries in the
VirtualHost.

Yes, I did search in google, but most of the stuff used jk1 oder was
about compiling jk2.

Any help appreciated,

kind regards, Paul

 Do not use JK2. Use JK instead.
 See:
 http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/news/20041100.html#20041115.1
 
 
 JK2 is not supported, neither it will be.
 Reasons are many, but the main is that mod_jk is simply a better
 product then mod_jk2 ever was.

Okay,
I didn't notice this at all. Thanks!

Well, i should have some tries now with jk1 (1.2.5). Oh, and I have to
use Apache now instead of Apache2, of course.

If you have some hints or howto's regarding my problem...

Okay, but I don't get jk1 for apache2 as a ready debian-package.
I prefer ready-built packages, because otherwise I could miss some
important compiling options or get some version-dependancy-errors or such.

Thank you for your advice,

Paul

 I've made one for my personal use.
 
 Let me know if you want it
 
Hi Sébastien,

this would be great. My system is Sarge on x86, using the newest Apache2
(2.0.53).

I'd like to test it. Big mails are no problem for me (and hopefully not
for my provider).
