    Subject: Signed jar-file

Dear sir, madam,

This might be a question that you encountered multiple times, but it is
something that I cannot work out. I am trying to write an applet that
uses the security system in JDK1.1, with javakey. I generate a signed
jar-file, using a certificate. When I use the appletviewer to view the
applet, the applet gets all the permissions a local applications should
have. When I put the applet on the web and try to view it with the
appletviewer, everything is allright as well. However, when I try to run
the applet in Netscape 4.03(using the Plug-In 1.1.1), I still get an
security exception. This might be caused by the fact that Netscape does
not accept the certificate. But how can I import a certificate into
Netscape, so that it allows my (signed) applets to run 'outside the
sandbox'?

Thank you very much in advance,

Onne Peters
