Cannot perform Bean lookup on signed Applet jar

Question

Hi All,
I'm after developing an applet which runs from a number of jars on an Orion app server. Each one of these jars are signed and I can access the Applet okay. The problem is that I make remote reference to EJB's throughout the application. I cannot perform a Bean lookup on a signed jar. The only way it can be done is when the Client is granted all permissions. The client should pop up an option to grant permissions.

Answer 1

If u are signing all the jar file along with the applet it should work
It does work fine with me. my code given below
note that i carry the following jar files along with my applet jar.
orion.jar,ejb.jar,,jta.jar,jnet.jar,jsse.jar,jcert.jar,parser.jar
and have them in my archive attribute of my html code for the applet
also all these jars are signed
hope this helps
regards
raees
