It worked for me.. I forgot the exact vertsion of Netscape but I
think it was 4.73.. Signtool is v 1.3 anyway. I was running Linux
redhat 6.2. However, I have a problem due to the Comm API (IBM
has filled a bug report about it) and so it is currently impossible
to use a Netscape VM with a pure java driver :-(. It is possible
under Windows using the PC/SC wrapper though.
Please find the trace of what commands I launched in PS, maybe
you will find a difference that would help you.
Cheers,
Christophe.

new opencard.opt.netscape.NetscapeSystemAccess();
opencard.core.util.SystemAccess.setSystemAccess(sys);
3) sign the applet
$ signtool -G cm
