Hi,

I could successfully run the test example at

http://java.sun.com/security/signExample12/signedPluginEx.html

after following the instructions given there.

But, when I tried to do it using new jar file, I got security exception =
...

I am running the batch file given below :

**************** start of batch file ****************

REM # Step 1: Create identity "OLI" with new keypair and self-signed =
certificate.
h:\jdk1.2\keytool -genkey -alias OLI -dname "cn=3DOLI, ou=3DContract =
Billing System,
o=3DMCI-Worldcom Inc., c=3Dus"

REM # Step 2: Create the archive.
h:\jdk1.2\jar cfv signedWriteFile.jar writeFile.class writeFile.html

REM # Step 3: Sign the archive.
h:\jdk1.2\jarsigner -verbose signedWriteFile.jar OLI

REM # Step 4: Show the contents of the signed archive.
h:\jdk1.2\jar tvf signedWriteFile.jar

REM # Step 5: Show the keystore contents.
h:\jdk1.2\keytool -list

**************** start of batch file ****************

I also modified the policy file using policytool utility.

The line added is as below :

CodeBase=3D"http://dev1-cbs.mcit.com:120/testpete/*.*",SignedBy "OLI"

Further how do I create .x501 files that I have to distribute to the =
client for importing to their 1.2 keystore.

Could anyone tell me where I am going wrong ??

Any comments/ suggestions are welcome .

Thanx.

Peter Vennel
