Hello all,

I have an web application that conect with https and request a client certification.
i get the client certificate from the request:

			

			X509Certificate[] certs = (X509Certificate[])request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");
			

			X509Certificate cert = certs[0];
			

			String dn = cert.getSubjectDN().getName();

this string is wrong: "CÚsar Fernßndez"

i want the string that appears in the Internet Explorer is: "César Fernández"

i intent:

			

			byte[] value = dn.getBytes();
			

			String dnS = new String(value, "ISO-8859-1");

but it don't works, returns the same.

thanks in advance,
César.
