I just dove in and did a build of 1.1p8 for Win32 (wanted the server)
tonight. Seems to work just fine, but I have a few computers on which the
server crashes upon connecting. (These are machines that were running
3.3.3r2 and I dropped the tight 1.1p8 binaries on them.) Has anyone else
running 1.1p8 seen this? I haven't dug in further to debug and find the
cause, so was curious if someone else had already been through this.

When downloading the binary client, I noted that the *nix flavor allows the
preferred encoding to be specified on the command line. Upon inspection, I
believe that the Win32 source does not provide for this. Can anyone disprove
me and tell me how to do it? Instead, I cheated and modified the viewer's
default preferred encoding to Tight, for now.

Let me guess - your "machine name" is assigned using WINS rather than DNS?
While your browser might understand WINS, Java doesn't.
