ssl certificate generated from openssl into tomcat
 
I have some servers with both apache web server and tomcat on it. I recently used openssl to generate a private and key and then the certificate signing request. I sent it off and received my certificate back. I've never really done much with tomcat before, and that is when I found out it expected me to use keytool to create the key and csr so that they were in a "keystore." Is there someway I can take the openssl keys and the certificate and get it into the keystore, or am I going to have to request a new certificate just for tomcat?

I hope this is the correct forum. Thanks!

In my opinion the best solution is to install Apache + ModJK + Tomcat. Then You have to install certificate only on Apache.


Do You use modJK ?

No. Is that the Apache Tomcat Connector? I'll have to look in to it. Thanks!
