Do Servlet filters have any issues with detecting SSL requests?
I have a filter that works okay with normal http request but it does not detect https request.
Any advice here would be appreciated.

AFAIK no.

Check that your web container is configured to listen for HTTPS requests. For Tomcat, check the "connector" elements in your "server.xml" file.

Hi Stephen, Thanks for your reply. My web server is actually Sun One, and it serves as a proxy for requests to an app server. I'm trying to deploy a filter that encrypts some parameters and sends it to the app server. Do you happen to know if filters can be deployed on a separate server and still be able to pass modified attributes to another machine on the network?

Send them as request parameters.
