   - create the certificate signing request;
   - install your certificate;
   - configure Tomcat to use SSL, find server.xml and change your connector settings:

     <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" SSLEnabled="true" 
     scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" keystoreFile="conf/localhost.jsk" keystorePass="password" sslProtocol="TLS"
