After doing some research, I have found a few examples of
{tomcat.home}/conf/server.xml files online that use the "crlFiles" param as
part of a connector. Is this a standard parameter that can be used in the
server.xml file? I ask because the sites where I have found these examples
are not clear in whether this is some "added" functionality. The reason I
don't try it out myself is because at this point I don't have a CRL which
contains any of the certificates we use in our development environment.
To summarize:
1) Is the crlFiles param a standard <connector> element?
2) Has (does) anyone use this param, and are there any quirks to using it.
Thanks,
Kennedy

Subject: RE: Certificate Revocation Lists in Tomcat 5.5
CRL support is present in Tomcat 5.5.12.
I am not an expert on Tomcat CRL support but what I
know is the following:
- You will need to recompile some of the
tomcat-util.jar classes with JDK 1.5 because Tomcat
5.5.12 was compiled with JDK 1.4. The classes to be
recompiled are:
org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSE15Factory and
org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSE15SocketFactory
classes.
- The crlFile property needs to be added inside your
SSL Connector in the server.xml file. The value is the
location of the CRL file on your system.

Martin

Tomcat currently doesn't support cert validation

want to use Apache's mod_ssl to do the CRL checking.
You will have to
use mod_jk to connect Apache web server with tomcat.
SSL is very computational intensive. Use Apache's
httpd to do the SSL
work is more efficient than to use Java-based
tomcat.

Subject: Certificate Revocation Lists in Tomcat 5.5
Hi all,
We've recently migrated our (SSL enabled) web
application from
SunOne to
Tomcat 5.5, and I can't find any information on
handling Certificate
Revocation Lists in Tomcat. In SunOne, there was a
function in the
administration console that let you import a CRL.
Is there any
equivalent
in Tomcat, or perhaps some other command line
equivalent?
Thanks for your help.
