[jetty-users] configuring jmx-remote module to use SSL

[Brian Reichert <reichert@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There was a thread back in February, where I recieved terrific help
about standing up a JMX interface over SSL.

I'm now exploring a varient of that topic, using the 'jmx-remote'
module instead of the 'jmx' module.

This seems straightforward, based on this document:

  http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.4.x/jmx-chapter.html

However, I'm running 9.3.8.v20160314, and the 9.3.x version of this
doc doesn't call out SSL at all:

  http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.3.x/jmx-chapter.html

When I try to employ the 9.4.x convention on my 9.3.x service, it
blows up, perhaps unsurpisingly:

    2017-06-21 21:23:47.862:WARN:oejx.XmlConfiguration:main: Config error at

  refid="sslContextFactory"/></Arg></New>|    </Arg></Call>
  java.lang.IllegalStateException: No suitable constructor: <New
  id="ConnectorServer" class="org.eclipse.jetty.jmx.ConnectorServer"><Arg>

Is there a 9.3.x mechanism for configuring the 'jmx-remote' module
to use SSL?
