Hello,

For my project, I am trying to write my applet which I want my browser to
"trust".

I am going through your "Signed applet example" found in
http://java.sun.com/security/signExample

I completed step 2. ( I have installed JavaPlugin and had observed the
default restriction as in step2).

I tried to download the Duke's certificate as in step 3. When I click on the
link it is displaying some binary data on the screen, so I just saved the
link as Duke.x509.

% javakey -c Duke true
works fine

When I do
%javakey -ic Duke Duke.x509

it says,
Error: io error[extra DER value data (constructor)]

1. I guess the certificate that I have a problem (because of the way I saved
it). Could you please send it to me by email if you think this is the problem.

2 In which directory should the identity database go? (netscape ot JDK).

Thanks in advance!

Sincerely,
Mercy
