Today I observed a reproducible problem which may allow someone who understands 
Java/web hosting better than I to work out what is happening on a standalone 
web site.

Scenario 1 Using Safari (probably irrelevant) to load the HTML file as 
file:///Users/ngreeves/Sites/externalemma/Pdheckts.html it works fine.

Scenario 2 Using built in Mac OS (Lion) Web Sharing to load the SAME file as 
http://ng-mbp.local/~ngreeves/externalemma/Pdheckts.html clicking on 
"Carbopalladation" produces the error.

FileManager.getAtomSetCollectionFromFile(model/pd/heck/heckmi.xyz)
FileManager opening 
http://ng-mbp.local/~ngreeves/externalemma/model/pd/heck/heckmi.xyz
file ERROR: http://ng-mbp.local/~ngreeves/externalemma/model/pd/heck/heckmi.xyz
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 
192.168.0.2 resolve)
openFile(model/pd/heck/heckmi.xyz): 159 ms
eval ERROR: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied 
(java.net.SocketPermission 192.168.0.2 resolve)
----
         load >> "model/pd/heck/heckmi.xyz" <<

Note that the error message refers  to ng-mbp.local which is the name of the 
Mac in Sharing preferences AND 192.168.0.2 which is the DHCP decimal address. 
I'm guessing this was obtained by (reverse) lookup and, as it differed, Java 
said NO.

For comparison, this version has a dotted IP address and never (as far as  I 
know) has problems http://138.253.125.70/~ng/asym11/Pdheckts.html

and this named domain version works fine for me 
http://www.chemtube3d.com/Pdheckts.html

I think the problem is to do with the address for the first file and then the 
address for the second file and them not looking the same.

Is there anything we can do to prevent this error on standalone systems (not 
really practical to use the DHCP address) or conventional web servers with 
named domains?

Best regards
Nick
