           Summary: truststore settings in hotspot
           Product: IcedTea
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: IcedTea
        AssignedTo: unassigned at icedtea.classpath.org
        ReportedBy: nitya.doraisamy at sun.com


system properties javax.net.ssl.trustStrore, trustStorePassword and
javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType are being set in hotspot and these changes don't
really belong there.

The code in hotspot/src/os/linux/vm/os_linux.cpp which sets the system
properties as part of hotspot should be removeed and the corrects changes
should be made in jdk/src/share/classes/sun/security/ssl/TrustManagerImpl.java. 
This includes code to point to a new default truststore and the new trustStore
type.

The current settings may cause any app that were to implicitly depend on the
default truststore to end up not working unless they overrode with a custom
system prop which they were not earlier doing. 
This may be a problem for Java apps that did not have such an setting made
earlier.
