3 Using Cisco Transport Controller

Step 10 If the Java plug-in is not in the default location on your workstation, set the environment variable NPX_PLUGIN_PATH to the location of the plug-in for each user and include /opt/j2re1_3_0_01/plugin/sparc/ns4 as its first element (and the only JRE-related element). Set the environment by typing:

csh: % setenv

NPX_PLUGIN_PATH/opt/j2re1_3_0_01/plugin/sparc/ns4:/opt/NSCPcom/ plugins

sh or ksh: # NPX_PLUGIN_PATH=/opt/j2re1_3_0_01/plugin/sparc/ns4:/opt/ NSCPcom/plugins

Step 11 Ensure that the xterm binary is in your search path by typing:

csh: % set path = ( /usr/openwin/bin $path ) # export PATH

sh or ksh: # PATH=/usr/openwin/bin:$PATH # export PATH

Step 12 Configure the plug-in to use the proper JRE:

(a)Log out of root.

(b)Run the ControlPanel command located in the /opt/j2re1_3_0_01/bin directory for each user.

(c)In the ControlPanel application, click Advanced.

(d)If JRE 1.3.0_01 appears in the list of available JREs, select it.

(e)If JRE 1.3.0_01 does not appear in the list, select Other and place your cursor in front of the Path dialog box and enter the path for the JRE (/opt/J2re1_3_0_01).

(f)Click Apply.

Note To bring up the Java console for the plug-in each time you browse to a node, click Basic, check the Show Java Control checkbox, and then click Apply. This may be useful when troubleshooting.

Procedure: Enable Applet Security for CTC

Step 1 Modify the java.policy file to allow the CTC launcher to write to the workstation’s hard drive:

(a)Exit Netscape if a Netscape session is running.

(b)Modify java.policy:

To enable the applet for all users, copy the lines from: /CD/Cisco15327/LAUNCHER.policy to /opt/j2re1_3_0_01/lib/security/java.policy.

Otherwise:

If your home directory has a .java.policy file, copy the lines from /CD/Cisco15327/LAUNCHER.policy to that file.

If your home directory does not have a .java.policy file, copy the /CD/Cisco15327/LAUNCHER.policy file to your home directory and rename it

.java.policy.
