RFE: Add client certificate-based authentication
------------------------------------------------
Key: JAMES-370
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-370
Project: James
Type: New Feature
Components: James Core
Versions: 2.2.1
Environment: any
Reporter: Ralf Hauser
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.action() with its
ActionCode.ACTION_REQ_SSL_CERTIFICATE or rather
org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSESupport.getPeerCertificateChain(boolean
force) may be a good source of inspiration.
Perhaps, client-certificate based authentication might be a candidate for a new
jakarta commons component?
It might not be long before Thunderbird starts offering this
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290787)
What will be very important that james can decide not just globally, but on a
per-user basis whether client-certs shall be used for authentication or not.
