    Subject: default user policy file on Windows

    Date: Fri, 30 Jul 1999 09:48:14 -0500

I am using JDK1.2.2. The java.security file contains the following entry
for the default user policy file loaction:
"policy.url1.2=file:${user.home}/.java.policy"
The documentation in
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/guide/security/PolicyFiles.html
indicates that the default user policy file is at "user.home\java.policy".

The problem is the leading dot on the file name ".java.policy", Windows
file names can not start with a period.
