Subject: Query on Applet security
Hello
I am currently trying to write a Java applet that can make network
connections to hosts other than its originating host. I am thinking
of implementing the signed trusted applet facility that is provided
in JDK 1.1. However I am having difficulty in locating the
information on how to do that in the JDK 1.1 documention at the home
page of javasoft. Can you tell me the site where I can have this
information. I have read about the fine-grined access control that
will be coming out soon in JDK 1.2. May I know how the second
approach will differ from the one in JDK 1.1 ? Also if I manage to
implement that when JDK 1.2 is released, will the browsers like
netscape and IE support that ?
Thank you
Sincerely
Jasmin
