    Subject: Signed applets & their use & Duke.bat bug???

    Date: Mon, 14 Jul 1997 12:56:09 -0400

Hi,

I have been trying to use the security procedures as outlined in the
example with the jdk1.1.3 documentation. I am using Windows 95.

1.) When the archive is signed in step 5, it creates a .jar.sig file. In
order to rename this file to the same name as the original .jar file,
the original must first be deleted.

del signedWriteFile.jar
ren signedWriteFile.jar.sig signedWriteFile.jar

2.) Following the steps given in the Duke example, I cannot get the
appletviewer to successfully load and run my signed .jar applet. It gets
stopped by the security manager- can't read my file. If I am using a
signed applet, must I somehow tell the appletviewer that this
allpication can access files?

Thanks,
Tom Ranz
