Steve,

I just attempted this using Apache Tomcat 5.5.17 and Firefox using a 
certificate signed by CACert.org (and trusted by my JVM).  I had no 
issues with CAS getting and validating a certificate.

At the DEBUG level, CAS should tell you whether their was a certificate 
found in the request or not.  If there was not, that means Tomcat did 
not properly receive the certificate.
