Ok,
I'm nearly there but not yet.....

I can ascertain what is in my keystore by doing:

$ keytool -list

Enter keystore password: mypassword

Keystore type: jks
Keystore provider: SUN

Your keystore contains 1 entry

beyarecords.com, Dec 7, 2004, keyEntry,
Certificate fingerprint (MD5):
32:44:5B:78:85:BA:BA:96:C1:CF:DF:A2:6A:0E:78:CB

I specify properties in jboss like so:

javax.net.ssl.keyStore=/library/java/home/lib/security/cacerts
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=changeit
javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType= JKS

The error message I get back is:

sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found

If I say :
javax.net.ssl.keyStore=/library/java/home/lib/security/cacerts/
beyarecords.com
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=mypassword

I get the following error:

java.net.SocketException: Default SSL context init failed: null

I am of the understanding that once a certificate has been imported
into the keystore and associated via an alias(beyarecords.com) with a
key (32:44:5B:78:85:BA:BA:96:C1:CF:DF:A2:6A:0E:78:CB) that it is then
trusted? What am I missing here?

regards

Andrew
