Hmm. I also use jdk1.1.6, win95 and don't have the classpath set,
but I don't see the error message 'could not initialize scope'
The code that creates that error message is in javakey,
main.setScope(IdentityScope.getSystemScope());
if (main.scope == null) {
main.error("could not initialize scope");
}
main is an instance of Main == javakey.
Perhaps the jdk1.1.6 installation didn't complete normally? This eventually
gets initialized from a property called system.scope in the
lib\security\java.security properties file.
You should have these lines in your java.security file
#
# Class to instantiate as the system scope:
#
system.scope=sun.security.provider.IdentityDatabase
