Thank you for the quick response, 1.3.80-17.20140615svn5186 addressed the 
warning that I was seeing.  I obviously missed the section -> Pre-release 
builds of the experimental next-generation code can be found here, under 
downloads.

Subject:        Re: [Tigervnc-users] Java 1.70_55 VNCviewer.jar Manifest 
warning



That attribute was added to the trunk last December (r5145).  v1.3.1 is 
quite old, as it's really 1.3.0 patched to address a specific security 
vulnerability.  Please try the latest nightly build (
http://www.tigervnc.org/tiger.nightly/) for a much more recent version. 
 The nightly versions are also signed with a legit code signing 
certificate in order to meet the new JRE security requirements.

HTH,

Hello,

Should Permissions: all-permissions be added to the MANIFEST.MF to the 
VNCviewer.jar?  The following is the reason I am asking.
- Thanks in advance
Bill

Environment: 
       Windows PCs running Java 1.70_55 and attempting to launch 
VNCviewer.jar (versions 1.2.0, 1.3.0, and 1.3.1) via httpd and parameters 
passed via JNLP.  This is causing the following Java warning:
        This application will be blocked in a future Java security update 
because the JAR file manifest does not contain the Permissions attribute. 

For anybody that is seeing this issue (probably not many people), this is 
what I did to resolve:

Linux Device running httpd and serving .jar file and parameters being 
passed via JNLP.
Extract:
        jar xf VncViewer1.3.1.jar
       mv META-INF/MANIFEST.MF .

ADD:
        vi MANIFEST.MF
        Permissions: all-permissions

Build:
        jar cvfm VncViewer1.3.1.jar MANIFEST.MF com*

Sign
        jarsigner
