Not necessarily much simpler, but we have started using WebStart for all client 
applications in our workspace. The deployment of WebStart to all the users was a 
little rough, but deploying an application to the client has become much easier - in 
fact, all that really needs to be done is to copy the jar file (and sometimes the JNLP 
file). One of the good things about WebStart is that you can specify the JVM that you 
want to use. If you are not familiar with WebStart, look here:

Hope that helps!

Subject: [jdjlist] Applet writing files on client


Hi

I have to run applet that uses the file system on the client. The applet
will be used just in mine company, so I have not a "real" CA certificate. I
created a "developer" certificate and signed the applet with it. The java
plugin 1.4.0 propmts the user to grant the needed permissions to the applet
or no. I want to have the same result on the older plugins (1.3.x) but in
this case the certificate must be imported in the trusted certificates
database (either in IE or in "jre\lib\security\cacerts" - different for the
different versions). Unfortunately it seems to be too complicated operation
for the ordinary user.

Does anyone have a suggestion how to make this operation simple and easy to
be done.

Thanks!
Zlatko
