    Subject: ssl-classes in jeeves usable outside jeeves?

Hi,

I know that you're not allowed to ship (even weak) cryptographic APIs
to non US or Canada residents but
as I understand one of the replies on this list, the classes shipped
with
Hotjava and JavaServer include SSL (the weak ones outside the US).

Are they in any way made unusable outside JavaServer?

I wrote a simple test prog that instantiates an SSLServerSocket.
I put the JavaServer classes.jar file into the classpath and it compiled

without any warnings.

However, running it produced this:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/security/ssl/SSLServerSocket
at PathTest.main(PathTest.java:14)

Is it me or is it impossible to use the SSL classes shipped with Jeeves
for other applications (btw. I'm located outside th US)?

Would anyone from the sun team please comment.

Thank you,

Robert
