The server certificate must be where you set it up in your server.xml (for
details, see the tomcat-ssl-howto). This will enable Tomcat to identify
itself to the client.

The client certificate's CA's public key (or just the whole certificate)
must be imported into %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/cacerts (the default
truststore that Tomcat uses), or, you have to define the system property for
the truststore in Tomcat's JVM if you want to use another truststore than
the default. This will enable Tomcat to trust the client.

cheers,
