Thanks guys -

Got the configs and logging worked out.  Your help appreciated.  Still
stuck on getting the .pfx out of the client.keystore.  Trying java
forums on that front.  If anyone interested in the solution let me know
and I'll fill you in when I get it worked out.

The one you want is: truststoreFile.

Configure the logging category 'org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse' to be
DEBUG (in your log4j/JDK 1.4 logging configuration).  That will give you
lots of Tomcat messages.  If you want lower level messages, consult the
JSSE docs.
