Hi Marianne,
> What demo are you doing for CEBit,by the way? Sounds interesting!

We designed an example of a socalled "general object tracking
architecture" that can be used to collect and analyse object data. As an
instantiation we try to show a portfolio management system which has a
private repository on a local server and connects to a information
server in the internet providing stock data. In order to enabele
access to local server we use signed jar-archives. We use stock data
only because they could easyly be accessed via the net. Other examples
could be remote monitoring of the state of elevators, etc.
If I understood my management right, than Sun will provide within the
next month a NC-machine on which that example should run.

Besides the problem with browsers and RMI one problem remains. Is it
possible to access public keys in the identitydb.obj from within an
applet to use it for verification of "streamed" data?

Yours
