I have installed Tomcat and I want to add security on my registeration page using SSL. Could anyone help me by showing me how to install it. Do I have to purchase anything from VeriSign or others. Please help?

When I try following the steps in ssl-howto.html, I get the following error:
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Key pair not generated, alias (tomcat) already exists.

What does keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA actually do? What is the alias for?

I'm pretty much new to SSL, any help is welcome. Thanks

No matter what they say in Ohio, we're still first in flight!
