I have an applet that works fine in appletviewer and Netscape 2.0B2, but now
fails in Netscape 2.0B3 - I'm hoping someone else out there has already seen
this and can tell me how to fix and/or work around it ...
I'm trying to create a socket (new Socket(host, port)) in a Java applet
where host == the host the HTML page came from, and port == 5310. The
socket creation fails with a security exception (but a connection *is*
established with the server listening to port 5310). This leads to a crash
of Netscape navagator shortly after a reload of the page.
This is with Navigator 2.0B3. This worked fine on 2.0B2; looks like
something changed in the security manager in 2.0B3 ... It also works fine
via the applet viewer.
BTW: this is on NT and WIn95. I have reported it to Netscape.
