Setting up SSL on Tomcat with a Self-Signed Certificate

This is a pretty common thing to need to do. Today I had to do this, and, even though I have done it many times before, I had to go searching to find out how to do it.

Tech Tracer has a nice, step-by-step set of instructions: http://techtracer.com/2007/09/12/setting-up-ssl-on-tomcat-in-3-easy-steps/
