Thanks for the reply.
 Unfortunately I've tried that and I'm still not getting anything back.
 My current track for making this work is using the Cryptographic Module which
 seems to have a $services.crypto.x509.certFromPEM() that works in a velocity
 template.  However, I need this for login purposes, so I need to know how to
 get that $services variable in my custom AuthServiceImpl. 
import org.xwiki.crypto.x509.X509CryptoService;
import com.xpn.xwiki.web.Utils;
X509CryptoService service = Utils.getComponent(X509CryptoService.class);
service.certFromPEM(....);
That should do the trick.

   This may not work
 at all, but it seems like the most likely path to take.
 Still open for more suggestions though.

 Hi,
 Client certs sounds like a neat project.
 When you are using scripting such as {{groovy}}, the "request" variable will
 be set to this:
 
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…
 -platform-oldcore/src/main/java/com/xpn/xwiki/web/XWikiServletRequest.java
 That is a wrapper around the actual HttpServletRequest but it appears that
 getAttribute() passes directly through.
 If you want to use the real servlet request so you can test better, you can
 call
 getHttpServletRequest() then use that.
 Good luck,
 Caleb

 Ok, so I have a different webapp running on the same instance of
 Tomcat as Xwiki, and I'm able to make a
 getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate") call and am able
 to get the clients certificates.  However, in my custom login for
 Xwiki when I try the same thing, it just returns null.  I've also
 tried creating a JSP in the Xwiki webapp that does nothing but call
 request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate") and it
 still returns null.
 Anyone have any idea why this would be the case?  As far as I can tell
 I have Tomcat configured correctly as I'm able to get the clients
 certs in a different webapp.
 Is Xwiki pulling this attribute and storing it elsewhere?  Or is this
 perhaps a struts issue?
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Unfortunately I've been given
 a short deadline on this.
 Thanks,
 Lenny
