RMI firewall issues

[somersbar]

im doing an assignment on 'rmi client callbacks' in college and am
having difficulty with the windows firewall here. when i try and run
the server i get the following error msg:

Exception in thread "main" java.security.AccessControlException: access

iv been told i have to do something with a policy file and tried but
still doesn't seem to help. im not even sure if im duin it right.

any advice appreciated.

you need to set up the policy terms...

One qay for setting up the policy terms is to creat a file, named "policy.all" on the same folder of the application with this content:

grant {
// Total permissive
permission java.security.AllPermission;
}

them you execute your application on this way


java -Djava.security.policy=policy.all applicationName

this should be work
