We have a project that needs to be rolled out by end of January 1999 and
this requires the use of using the secuirty policy file to allow access to
some clients local resources (ie file & print services).
I have step thru a sample using a signed jar file and using the appletviewer
to run a policy file against an internal web server for testing.
ie Connect to a resource under NT 4 N: drive
then type appletviewer -J-Djava.security.policy=mypolicy.mp
http://10.35.35.242/myprojects/java/signed_applets/signed_applets.html.
My problem at this time is how to get this working just using the browser
(ie4 or netscape 4.x). I have seen no examples of how to use it in a
browser.
I would appreciate any assistance and be glad to pay for this service.
