Hi, I am using X509 certificates to authenticate WebService clients for JBoss 4.0.5 and JBossWS 1.2.1 (JAX-WS). Everything works fine, however, in my web service code, I would like to know the alias for the public key entry in the keystore for the calling client. One way would be to parse the SOAP-document, obtain the element containing the security info, and manually look it up in the keystore. However, I wonder if there is a standardized way, (Jboss-specific is no problem) of obtaining the alias from the keystore given the SOAP message, or at least a way of obtaing the certificate from the SOAP-message without manually digging into SOAP-details.
