The jdk6 and jdk7 environments are still somewhat dissimilar, but thanks
to Andrew Hughes the patches have been ported to make sure they also
work on jdk7 out of the box by default using just public hosts without
the need to change anything in your test environment locally. Attached
is the patch against jdk7.
I also filed (the jdk6 version) in bugzilla so it doesn't get forgotten:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/show_bug.cgi?id=100066
Thanks,

It's been on my list to forward-port the TestEnv and test updates to
jdk7 (just haven't got to it yet). The idea with that was that jtreg
would be run with a properties file that listed the hosts that the tests
depend on (eg: jtreg -e JTREG_TESTENV=openjdk-hosts.properties). We
(meaning Joe and I) kinda hoped that would be preferable to patching
TestEnv but maybe this isn't the case. Changing these tests to not
depend on the telnet port is a good idea as it is hard to find systems
with that legacy service enabled. Changing the defaults to hosts outside
of Sun is reasonable in principle but this is going to cause disruption
for our test teams when running on test systems that will not be able to
connect to these systems. I need to check into this and also to see if
openjdk.java.net systems could be used, or maybe just re-visit these
tests to not depend on other hosts.
