Hello,
I was reading your JDK1.1 - Signed Applet example.
I tried to get your writeFile applet to work on my system, however,
nothing would work.
First, I tried your example:
I downloaded Duke's certificate, Duke.x509
I added him as a trusted identity:
javakey -c Duke true
Then, I associated the certificate with the identity "Duke"
javakey -ic Duke Duke.x509
The applet still threw a Security Exception. The same thing happens in
Netscape.
I also deleted the identity database and ran your DoIt script and the
same thing happens.
I am running WinNT 4.0. with JDK1.1.4
Also, have you successfully gotten this to work with Netscape 4.03?
This is very important to a current project that I am working on. I am
getting Security Exceptions when I try to do RMI. I think that Signing
my .jar file will do away with this problem.
Can you help? I just want it to work!!!
Thank you very much. Tim Kimmet, a curious Java developer...
