A different user was failing on Solaris with the same exception, but that turned out to be a problem with CLASSPATH. >You're right; there is a parameter in the appletviewer's configuration >that can negate the sandbox security model, allowing network connections >to others machines to be made. I'd say more, but I've never used it... Anyone have more info. on appletviewer configuration? >Cafe probably also disables this setting for development (although if you >didn't turn it off, that's odd.

I noticed your use of 'non-gui applet' before... anything that >is run by the command-line 'java' is an application and not subject >to security barriers i.e. are you sure you're only trying applets? >(public TestClass extends java.applet.Applet?) I have a non-gui (no java.awt or java.applet) version of my application that does most of the same functions run from the "java" command line. Actually, there isn't much difference between an application and an (local) applet. It's relatively easy to add a main() method to an applet (class that extends java.applet.Applet), wrap it in a java.awt.Frame and run it from the "java" command.
