Good afternoon,
I am implementing SSL on Tomcat 5.5.28 (on a Windows Server 2008 box) 
for the first time as part of a BusinessObjects implementation.  My 
client wants to use a self signed certificate and I was able to create 
one using the keytool utilities with a keystore, but it has already 
expired (it's been 90 days).  How can I create a self signed 
certificate that lasts longer?


Use -validity numberOfDays (default 90).

Do I need to use something like OpenSSL?  I have looked on the Tomcat 
documentation and spent many hours googling, but I'm not completely 
clear on the process.

I've included screenshots of my process to help describe what I'm doing.
Thanks,
Jessica

To further CBy's statement, use the keytool doc, not Google:
