Hi,
hi,
for java2 we have policy files which have grant entries, which gives access to the protected resources.
where are the policy files placed (client side or server side), if it is on the client side , how do we place it on the client side.
Well to be accurate they can are on both the java server and the java client. I believe you refer to the use of java applets...there are two obivous solutions to the "trust" problem: 1) make the client use policy tool to grant your
applet the priviledges you need. 2) Sign you applet and make the client trust it so it can gain application-level rights on the clients computer. The latter is the easier one - the client simply has to click the browser dialog.
