Whatch yourself when you mix SSL with swing I'm still fighting that
battle. Assuming your using the activator and I don't see how your not if
your going to right swing clients. Sun hasn't gott SSL working in the
activator yet, so that means anything that tries to use it breaks. And
then your headaches begin. The best idea I have seen is to use some
password protection on the applet i.e. applet init pulls up a login box
and only if that succeeds do you start up your applet.
