We are developing using Java and Oracle 10G with an Oracle Application Server.  I need to provide  Web Services we have developed a way through Java to obtain the SSL_CLIENT_S_DN and SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN from an X509 certificate to authorize users without them having to login.  We authenticate users just by having them have a security certificate.  If anyone knows how I can access these variables from a certificate through Java I would appreciate some help.

Oracle is an object-relational database management system. It supports a large number of languages and application development frameworks. Its primary languages are SQL, PL/SQL and Java, but it also includes support for C and C++. Oracle also has its own enterprise modules and application server software.

Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is a specification defining a collection of Java-based server and client technologies and how they interoperate. Java EE specifies server and client architectures and uses profiles to define technology sets targeted at specific classes of applications. All Java EE profiles share a set of common features, such as naming and resource injection, packaging rules and security requirements.
