Hi,

Follow these steps to configure your digital id

1. generate a local certificate:
   keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keystore <myfile> where <myfile> is the 
name of the desired keystore-file

2. generate the CSR (you need it to request your (demo)certificate)
   keytool -certreq -keyalg RSA -alias tomcat -file certreq.pem
-keystore
<myfile>
   now you have a file called "certreq.pem". Send this to your
trustcenter.

Note : You can skip steps 1 & 2 becoz u said, u already got a verisign certificate. 
But make sure that u have done these steps only to send your demo cert. to verisign.

3. Goto verisign & download TrustedCA Root Certificate which they give for the 
browser. The downloaded file name would be getcacert. Now use the following command to 
import that into trust store

keytool -import -alias root -keystore <myfile> -trustcacerts -file
<root-cert-file>

4. Now import your verisign certificate with this command

keytool -import -alias tomcat -keystore <myfile> -trustcacerts -file
<received-cert-file>

With the above 4 steps, u r ready with your keystore. Now goto server.xml & search for 
"        <Http10Connector  port="8443" secure="true" />"

Uncomment the above line & add the following changes

 <Http10Connector  port="8443" secure="true" 
  keystoreFile = "path of your keystore"
  keypass = "if u give anything other than changeit"
  socketFactory = "org.apache.tomcat.net.SSLSocketFactory"
/>

I think this should solve your problem. All the best.

Regards,

..Raj
