Browser settings to accept unsigned applets

Hi,
I'm writting an applet that uses a socket, therefore I need to sign my applet to view it into my browser. So every time I change my code I need to resign the applet.
Can I set my browser so I will accept unsigned applet?, this will be a lot easier to test and change the code of the applet.
I'm using a IE6 browser.
Thanks in advance,
Pieter

Yes if you have a JRE installed.
You can edit your java.policy file so that any java applet started on your machine will be given all priviledges.
Obviously for general use(i.e. untrusted applets) this would be quite dangerous.
You can add the following to your java.policy file....
grant{
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

Browser modifies http accept header field set by applet

My problem: I have an applet which emulates a wml-browser. The applet is running in Internet Explorer 5. I can access all http-header fields from the applet and all settings made by the applet are honored.
But not the accept header-field... I can set it, but it is always modified afterwards by Internet Explorer or Netscape... It always include accept: text/html while it should only accept wml
Thanx in advance,
Marco

Question is ofcourse: How can I prevent this unwanted behaviour of the browser in which the applet is running?

Hello! I have two questions.
(1) I want to submit a question through www.tune-up.com but the website does not accept my inquiry.
I get the following message: "Your Web browser must accept cookies in order for you to send your data. Please adjust your browser settings to enable this site to store cookies and access this site again."
I checked my cookie settings, and it looks like I have the Firefox default settings (i.e. cookies are accepted). Tried to submit my inquiry again but it does not work. Please advise how to make sure I can submit inquiries etc.
(2) I want to start using the Google search again but not sure how do change the settings. I do not want to have DuckDuck Go as my default. Would you please describe how to change back to Google? Also, is the problem I described above perhaps related to the DuckDuckGo search engine I use?
I look forward to your assistance which is greatly appreciated - Thank you!

On #1, you can check the site-specific cookie setting using the Permissions panel of the Page Info dialog. When you are on the page, you can open that dialog using either:
* right-click the page > View Page Info > Permissions
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > Permissions
Skim or scroll down to "Set Cookies" to make sure it is not set to Block.
If that is okay, some other random thoughts:
* Are you using the site in a private browsing window?
* Do you recall disabling DOM storage, which sites sometimes use instead of cookies to store large blobs of data (Firefox controls access to DOM storage using your cookie setting for the site)?
On #2, your default search engine should not have changed. To change it to Google, you can use the icon on the left end of the search bar (the classic small search box that appears on the toolbar). Please see: [[Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox]].
I don't think there is any connection between #2 and #1.

(Browser) Settings to view applets

Hi folks, right my applet can be viewed in some browser settings, but some user cant just see it but gray screen. One of them said the status bar in browser displays "... Applet not found". but this very applet perfectly works fine in others browsers. So I wanted to know what are the browser settings so I can give some advice to my users? I'll start from the mains requirement, u please continue, if u can:
1. Download JRE to be able to see applets.
Thank you.
Delf

The only advice you need is to read this: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/contents.html

Unable to display Info path form using IE , The form cannot be displayed in the browser because the use of DOM storage has been disabled in the current browser settings. In order to load the form, DOM storage must be allowed.

I have edited the default edit form for my Issue Tracking Tool using Info Path, But currently when I try accessing the form using IE 10 64x , I got the following error-
“The form cannot be displayed in the browser because the use of DOM storage has been disabled in the current browser settings. In order to load the form, DOM storage must be allowed.”
But using Firefox I was able to access the edit form , so can anyone advice on this please?
Thanks

Unsigned applet: some machines can copy to clipboard, others can't

My understanding of Java applet security says that an unsigned applet cannot copy-to or paste-from the system clipboard. However, on at least two systems at my office (but not mine) the user can highlight text in one of our applets, hit Ctrl-C and copy the text to the clipboard. All machines are current vintage, running MS XP and Java 1.4.2. I've checked the java.policy files and they are identical--there are no non-standard permissions in them.
Now my boss is complaining that I told him this couldn't be done without going the signed applet route. Does anybody know what's going on?

First of all if you're developing applets for your company (or another one) make sure they
have the jre set up correctly.
Any respectfull IT person within a company has IE security set up so why not the jre as
wel?
Using the default jre installation in your company? Are you allso using the default IE
install or did you not agree with some settings there?
Anyway here is how I think you should set up the jre for your companys people:
I think a good configuration would be a keystore and policy on the company's
Intranet to be used by everyone and if so needed a keystore and policy in the user home
folder to be edited only by admins. Add the 2 keystores to the java.security and the
admins can configure any special privileges to special applets (like IE security zones
but more detailed).
Add the following line to all codebases: "grant { " section in the java.policy/
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "usePolicy";
Now the user does not have the option of "do you trust" for signed applets. I think this
is a verry good idea because anyone with a jdk can sign their jar.
About someone beeing able to copy and the other one not, I guess you've given the
user too much freedom in changing their settings (the msjvm settings in IE). The
applet is probably not even run with the SUN jre because you are using the Applet tag.
Now I am not even sure if hitting crl + c does anyting with an unsigned applet but I would guess that accessing the clipboard from code should not be possible.

Unsigned applet load failure via HTTPS

First, Java plugin don't use browser https connection starting JRE 1.4, for running an applet in https server, the browser need to establish a https connection first, then Java pugin will use another https connection.
Second, Java plugin can read certificate from browser, starting JRE 1.5, you can go to Java control panel, Advanced tab, under security, check on the box:
"Use certificate and keys in browser keystore"
This way the Java plugin will read the certificate from browser too. (It will work automatically in IE browser, if you use Mozilla, you have to install JSS package first).
To answer your question, you can either turn on that option or import https certificate into JRE keystore (using Java control panel) for https connection.
Hope that answered your question.

Connecting to a remote servlet from an unsigned applet

My applet connects to a remote servlet (on a different server). I could obviously connect to it fine with a signed applet, but now my applet is no longer signed.
I understand an unsigned applet can access a servlet on the same web server host, but the problem is that the servlet is on a different server...
Is there some simple way I can create a file (html or whatever) on the web server host that can accept requests from the applet and redirect them to the remote servlet?
Cheers,
James

If I understand what you're saying, no.
But perhaps you can install the applet on the server that you want to connect to.

How can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?

Hi ,
how can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?When we configured security in web.xml , during the first request the container is asking for the authentication credentials once they are provided it go's on. but when the user gives a fresh request from the second window within the same browser that time it is not asking for authentication. How can we overcome this.Is there anything to do with server configurations?
How can we make the container no to keep the things or act like session?

Ya... I am taking a small example need not happen always but a kind of possibility i am thinking off.
once the user sign out and just left without closing the browser and a friend (suppose not a good friend ... just kidding...) of that user may open the same jsp or file .This time the security is breached. If that feature or property exists....
I know what you might say ... the user will log-out before leaving where a programer might invalidate the session at the time of log out.
Consider the case of a bad Programing or just a programer might forget to invalidate,At that time as a application administrator how can he solve that issue.
Thanks.......

There are other things that need your attention.

Since I did the Firefox reset, I try to open my email and it says, Your browser does not accept cookies. I have checked the cookies setting 100 times!

Since I did the Firefox reset, I try to open my email and it says, Your browser does not accept cookies. I have checked and done your suggested setting 100 times!

Note that a reset tries to migrate cookies to the new profile, so if you had previously as problem with cookies then the problem might have been carried over.
If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Remembering username and password in an unsigned applet...

Does anyone have any ideas how my unsigned applet could remember the username and password entered by a user?
Previously, I was using a signed applet so could store the username and password in a persistent text file, but now I need to provide an unsigned applet solution - so does anyone have any suggestions for how my applet could remember and recall the username and password?
Many thanks,
James

Take global variable and store pass and user name in it .
or getParameter() and setParameter() u can set parameter define in html file as global . so multiple applet in same webpage can access this pass and user name

Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies

I get this error:
Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies
Ok, and this means what?!
I just installed The latest MySQL, and PHP... for my server, and the message above is what I get now when I attempt to log into my own server, though localhost, or even 127.0.0.1... Are you telling me that because of this configuration that Safari can't handle the latest of either or both?
Or is there anything else that may be causing the problems? I have it so it accepts cookies from the site only... so there is no excuse as far as I can tell for this bugaboo...
Anyone got a clue, and a sollution in why this is happening at all?

Hi Matthew,
Do you run/repair Permissions as you'r supposed to before & after updates & installations,wiyh DU.Utility ? Also there is an updates to 10.4.2 for Tiger & two 2005-007 Security updates,though I would advise that you read about those,the first breaks the 64 bit (whatever that may mean is in WikIpedia.com?) *again read about Sec.Updte before installing them.
