RMI Example

[JinXi Li]

For using rmi,I write a examples for test.But when I run server side program,there is error.Like:
HelloImpl err:access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 127.0.0.1:1099 connect,re
solve)
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 1
27.0.0.1:1099 connect,resolve)

at examples.hello.HelloImpl.main(HelloImpl.java:17)

Who can help me to solve the problem.
Here is my code:
package examples.hello;
import java.rmi.*;
public interface Hello extends Remote {
String sayHello() throws RemoteException;
}

package examples.hello;
import java.rmi.*;
import java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject;
public class HelloImpl extends UnicastRemoteObject implements Hello {
private String name;
public HelloImpl(String s) throws RemoteException {
super();
name = s;
}
public String sayHello() throws RemoteException {
return "Hello Zeng Gang";
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
try {
HelloImpl obj = new HelloImpl("HelloServer");
Naming.rebind("/HelloServer",obj);
System.out.println("HelloServer bound in registry");
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("HelloImpl err:"+e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Another question: How to use policy file?
Thanks!

I guess you didn't start the RMI Registry. You can use the policy file by giving the policy file as one of the configuration parameters during the RMI server startup like -D java.security.policy=java.policy

[JinXi Li]

Thank you!
But I have started rmiregistry!

[Sai Prasad]

Remove the code that sets the RMI Security Manager. If you like to use RMISecurityManager, you need to have a java.policy file which gives rights for the server to make the socket connection at port 1099

[Terry Wang]

sample policy file:
grant {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

I'd just remove the RMISecurity.

Thanks for everyone!

Thanks again!

Mark,
Do you think that the grader might take a few points off for not implementing the security?

No, just ask Peter.
I had security on the client only in my submission. and I didn't even need that.
