Subject: problem with importing signed applets

I have problems with importing certificates. I have created a signedJar
and certificate(self signed). It is fine upto that point. When I access
it thru appletviewer in the same system( I also added the permission in
the .java.policy in the user home)
it informs of permission denied.
As you can see, all the message below are from java's security forum
and there are many more like that regarding importing certificate and
running signed applets.

Could you please give more information regarding importing certificates,
how to run
signed applet, etc. The information given in the web site is good upto
the example. I put the policyfile in C:\test( for a patricular ex) and
it works fine, But any other general policy like reading all files is
not working.

Thank you
Chandra

self-signed applet problem

Hi, I have a jar signed using javakey. I understand
that, to make the client browser trust it, the entity which
signed the jar must exist on the client identity
database(unless it's signed by some authority, which it's not).

How exactly do I install the entity on the client
side? What file do I need to install or modify, and how?!

Thanks very much.

Hi I am developing with jdk1.2 I have an
x509 certficate released by our internal CA (but it conforms to the
standards). How can I import the CA
certificate and my own certificate in the keyregistry ?

TIA
