It is basically the same as JCE 1.2 just it is internal to JDK 1.4 . So providers will not have changed for you. For the JCE in JDK 1.4 you might want to get the "Unlimited Strength" (at least I think that is the name they give it) policy files.

Your advice about migrating to JDK 1.4.0 is well taken. Does JDK 1.4 come with any providers? -----Original Message----- From: John W. Warner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 11:26 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Using JCE with Tomcat 4.0 If you're heavy on security you should be using JDK 1.4.0 and it will cut out this middle step you are experiencing. Technically, the JCE is deprecated in favor of the JDK itself since 1.4.0 incorporated the security work. Probably the preferred method would be to inside your constructor put java.security.Security.addProvider(new sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE()); I have a class for encryption and a class for decryption in the constructor for each I dynamically load whatever provider I need.

I am running JDK 1.3 with Tomcat 4.0.3 I have added jce1_2-do.jar into my common/lib subdirectory in Tomcat and introduced it to my JDK by adding the line security.provider.3=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE to /usr/java/jdk1.3.1_02/jre/lib/security/java.security This all works fine when I run crypto code from the command line. When I run the same code from within Tomcat I get exceptions that suggest it can't find the correct algorithm. Does anyone know what I need to do inside of Tomcat to either give myself permission to use this class package or to find it? -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
