The userid "mrm" is my userid -- I prepared the examples, but there is
no reason why you should need my key to use the examples.
Try following the steps outlined in "Using Javakey" at
http://java.sun.com/security/usingJavakey.html
and see if that works for you.
The basic steps are
1. create an "identity" for yourself in the identity database
2. create a key pair for yourself and associate it with
that identity
3. generate a certificate to hold the public key of that
identity. You need to create a certificate directive file
to do this step.
4. create and sign a JAR file. You need to create a sign
directive file to do this step.
There are more explicit directions in the "Using Javakey" document.
