KeyManagerUtils (Apache Commons Net 3.4 API)

## Class KeyManagerUtils

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.commons.net.util.KeyManagerUtils

-     public final class KeyManagerUtils
      extends Object

  General KeyManager utilities

  How to use with a client certificate:

       KeyManager km = KeyManagerUtils.createClientKeyManager("JKS",
           "/path/to/privatekeystore.jks","storepassword",
           "privatekeyalias", "keypassword");
       FTPSClient cl = new FTPSClient();
       cl.setKeyManager(km);
       cl.connect(...);

  If using the default store type and the key password is the same as the store password, these parameters can be omitted.
  If the desired key is the first or only key in the keystore, the keyAlias parameter can be omitted, in which case the code becomes:

       KeyManager km = KeyManagerUtils.createClientKeyManager(
           "/path/to/privatekeystore.jks","storepassword");
       FTPSClient cl = new FTPSClient();
       cl.setKeyManager(km);
       cl.connect(...);
