You're not turning on a feature in an independent module; WebStart is changing the mode the JVM runs in. > Does Tomcat use the same Security Manager as WebStart or does > it just share the same switch? The SecurityManager is an attribute of the JVM, not of any particular set of classes loaded in that JVM. If the SecurityManager is enabled, all classes running inside that JVM have to live with it. > Is there perhaps a central place in the Tomcat source code where the > switch is evaluated, so I can rename it or hard-code it to "false"? You're missing the point; Tomcat isn't the one enforcing this, the JVM is. Since you have chosen to operate in an environment that includes a SecurityManager, you must find the controlling policy file for that SecurityManager and make sure it includes all the permissions Tomcat needs (the ones in catalina.policy). - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
