Overview

JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat, installed via the tomcatjss package, is a Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) module for Apache Tomcat that uses Java Security Services (JSS), a Java interface to Network Security Services (NSS).

Note
 Tomcat JSS 8.5 has been merged into JSS 5.5.

Configuration

JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat defines a number of attributes for a Connector including:

  • clientauth: specify if client authentication is required in the connector (or port), it can be true or false. If true then client authentication is required.

  • sslOptions: specify a comma-delimited list of ssl options to pass into the ssl implementation. Each option takes the form of: option=[true|false]. JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat supports the options: ssl2, ssl3, tls.

  • ssl2Ciphers: specify a list of SSL2 ciphers that JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat should accept or reject from the client. You can use + to denote "accept", - means "reject"

  • ssl3Ciphers: specifies a list of SSL3 ciphers that JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat should accept or reject from the client. You can use + to denote "accept", - means "reject".

  • tlsCiphers: specifies a list of TLS ciphers that JSS Connector for Apache Tomcat should accept or reject from the client. You can use + to denote "accept", - means "reject".

  • serverCertNickFile: a file in which specify the nickname of the server certificate. The file should contain a single line that contains the nickname.

  • passwordFile: specify a file in which a password that is required to access NSS’s security database. Each entry in the file needs to appear on its own line and has the form: token_name=password

  • certdbDir: specify the directory the NSS security database resides in.

  • passwordClass: specify the class that will be used to read the password.

  • sslProtocol: needs to be SSL

  • sslImplementationName: MUST be org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jss.JSSImplementation in order to use the plugin
