1. IBM does not support problems with Sun's or other third
party JSSE or JCE code. Only the IBM JSSE and JCE providers are supported.
2. WebSphere Application Server supports the JSSE and JCE "provider
framework", which means that multiple providers can be "plugged in". This
means customers should be able to plug in Sun's (or other providers) JSSE
or JCE into the IBM framework. If it cannot be plugged in to the
framework, then IBM will investigate problems with the framework only.
3. If you are experiencing problems using a third party provider for
JSSE or JCE code, first verify that the files from the third party
provider do not contain framework files. A third party framework file
(often these files have a .fw extension) will conflict with the IBM
framework.
4. If you believe that the problem you are experiencing is with the IBM
framework specifically, please submit a testcase and specifics that prove
this to IBM support, and we will investigate on a "best effort" basis.
5. Keep in mind that IBM does not test WebSphere Application Server
with Sun's or any other third party JSSE or JCE providers.
