VNC JavaSecurity Error
I am installing SuSE 11SP3, like I have done many times before, however this time when I get to the part where I bring up a web page and go to the new instance to start a VNC session, it tells me that my security settings wont let me run the old version of Java that is being downloaded from the VNC server(the new Linux instance). Any suggestions on getting around this? -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/

Any suggestions on getting around this? Sounds like a problem in the browser. What browser are you using? Have you looked at the security settings of your browser?

We ship a Java based VNC client, and have encountered problems with: - the Code Signing of the .JAR file had expired, and so a local Java installation refused to run it, deeming it insecure. Solution was to update what we shipped with a more corrent copy - the Java on the local machine, which was being started by the browser, was 'stale' and had been updated upstream; Solution there was an update of that Java (This especially seen on OS/X units) - the Code Signing key used to sign the .JAR was counteresigned by a CA (Certificate Authority) not known to the local Java installation. Solution was to add that CA's 'chain of trust' into the local ancillary install for the local Java install Reading the messages closely is needed, to understand what is in play -- Russ herrold -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
