Hello colleagues,
does anyone of you have experience in "connecting to a server (servlet) by a Java applet using SSL on Mac OS9 or Mac OS X" ?
My applets support secure file transfer in conjunction with SSL, HTTP 1.0 and 1.1. proxy servers. This works fine for the PC platform.
Interactive Truststore check like browsers offer is not yet supported.
Therefore the webserver to connect to uses a Verisign certificate (should also be contained in Mac-client's truststore), i include additional archives on MAC OS 9 (jsse.jar, jcert.jar, collections.jar ...), MRJ 2.2.5 has been installed.
I do not use MRJ classes within my applet code for the Mac suite.
On Mac OS9 and Mac OSX the insecure variant is working. If i turn on the secure state, i cannot establish the SSL Socket connection.
errors:
OSX: access denied exception in Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
OS9: class not found exception: java.security.PriviledgedAction, although this class is contained in one of the jars which were loaded from the webserver).
I am in favor of every hint, example code snippets or links.
