Following an example from Hall's More Servlets book, I had attempted extracting
a cert from a HTTP request using the following:
X509Certificate cert =
(X509Certificate)req.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");
which generated a difficult to debug class cast exception. The answer
(thanks to a post from
John Brayton) is of course that you need a cert array instead, eg:
X509Certificate []certAr = (X509Certificate
[])req.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");
I am submitting this as a follow up to Mr. Brayton's post so that others
can locate the problem
quicker.

Eric Gilbertson
