 Is it possible to use client certificate authorization without a password
 and its associated dialog?


Tomcat 4.x can do this.  See the docs for the version of Tomcat you are
using:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/ssl-howto.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/ssl-howto.html

RE: client authorization.

2002-07-17 Thread Tathagat (London)

They only describe how to get a certificate on server side. I mean server
can show a certificate to client, but it does not say how do the client
sends a certificate to the server.

I think we need to find this thing out.,

You need to import a *client* certificate into your browser (following the
procedures for your browser -- it has nothing to do with Tomcat).

Then, when the server is set up to challenge for client certificates
(which it will if you use CLIENT-CERT as the authentication mechanism, or
you've set the clientAuth attribute on the HTTPS connector), the browser
will pop up a dialog asking you which of your client certificates you want
to send in response.

 I think we need to find this thing out.,

What if the client isn't a browser but a Microsoft ASP based HTTPXML call?

Re: client authorization.

2002-07-17 Thread David Mossakowski

then it really has nothing to do with Tomcat.

Your ASPs need to implement SSL (sorry i'm not versed in ASP :)

In Java you would need to import the client certificate (if not 
certified by a certified CA) into the JVM and tell it to trust it 
explicitly.
