Hello


Sorry if this is a trivial question.

I have read Tomcat Documentation and list Archive and as I am not a specialist of Tomcat, I am not sure of my understanding.

first, tomcat is behind apache.
I want the access to a servlet be secured by client certificate and to check who can access to this servlet. I want to use the FakeBasicAuth of mod_SSL (SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth). This type of authentication allows apache to check whether a certificate (the DN of the certificate) is contained in file (the name of this file is contained in .htaccess), to let the client access to the URL (in my case a servlet).
I have understood that it can be possible. how can I do it ?
Where must I put my ".htaccess" file ?

thanks in advance
Best Regards
xJ
