Don't quote me, but I remember seeing a similar post before. As I
recall apache will not forward the ssl information to tomacat. Hope
that helps.

Subject: Obtaining SSL Certificate in Servlet/JSP Page?
Hi,
We are using the following environment:
Linux / Apache 1.3.19/mod_ssl/mod_jk / Tomcat 3.2.1
In a portion of our application, we're using apache/mod_ssl to
require the user to present us with a client certificate. All of this
works fine. Where we're having a problem is in getting the certificate
that the client has passed to apache in our JSP pages and Servlets
running under Tomcat. Is this even possible? We've looked at the
various javax.servlet.* API's and it doesn't seem to be. Have also
looked over various portions of the Tomcat code and don't really see
anything there.
Does anyone have any clues as to how we can do this?
Brendan
