Java - SSL over IIOP

Hi all,

I have a CORBA/TAO server and a java application.

I want to let my java application talk (actually just authenticate) with the server via SSL and switch back to use normal CORBA calls once the login has been performed.

I have used jacorb … it was easy to set the environment (just enable SSL – and set keystore) but from there ALL the communication with the server are made in SSL.

I know a bit about POLICY - NO_PROTECTION or CONFIDENTIALITY those two could help!

But, does anyone know if JACORB implements such policies … I have posted to the jacorb forum with no answer … and if it does how to set them at runtime?

---------

I did try to do the same in with java orb …

But how do actually initialize the ORB to use SSL … does java orb supports SSLIOP?

---------

I have just the SERVER ior and from there all the communication goes through corba.

Any help or suggestion or book will be appreciated.

Regards
Kar
