The following code snippet in an applet works fine in Netscape 4.72 under Linux (SuSE 6.3) but under Windoze anything, throws a security exception. Any ideas? // Set up security manager so that we can play UDP secMgr = System.getSecurityManager(); ........ // Wait for a UDP message System.out.println("Waiting for a UDP message on port " + port + " .."); byte [] buff = new byte [32768]; ds = new DatagramSocket(port); // OK under Linux; security exception under Windoze dp = new DatagramPacket(buff, buff.length); ds.receive(dp); ds.close(); // Not required under Linux; needed under Windoze String sk = new String(dp.getData()).trim(); (If the issue is a Windoze matter please contact me privately.) ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
