Obtaining a Secure Socket

First, initialize a keystore.

[greg:secure] keytool -genkey -alias servercert -keyalg RSA -keysize 1024 
 -dname "CN=FederalReserveBank,OU=DRE,O=BEA,L=Dallas,S=TX,C=US" -keypass password 
 -keystore keystore.jks -storepass password
[greg:secure] keytool -list -v -keystore keystore.jks
Enter keystore password: password 
Keystore type: JKS
Keystore provider: SUN

Your keystore contains 1 entry
