Accessing secure resources using SSL and applet clients

By default, the applet client is configured to have security enabled. If you have administrative security turned on at the server from which you are accessing resources, then you can use secure sockets layer (SSL) when needed.

About this task

If you decide that the security requirements for the applet differ from other application client types, then create a new version of the sas.client.props and ssl.client.props files.

Procedure

  1. Make a copy of the following files so that you can use them for an applet:
  2. Edit the copies of the sas.client.props and ssl.client.props files that you made with your changes.
  3. Click Start > Control panel > select the product Java plug-in to open the Java control panel. To use the files you created in step 1, modify the following values:
    • -Dcom.ibm.CORBA.ConfigURL=file:<app_client_root>\properties\sas.client.props
    • -Dcom.ibm.SSL.ConfigURL=file:<app_client_root>\properties\ssl.client.props
    For more information on the sas.client.props and ssl.client.props files and WebSphere Application Server security, see the Security section of the information center.
