    Exclamation Java Applet exception when accessing an FTP server

    Hi,

    I'm creating an applet for my website to enable users to upload files to an FTP server. When I run the applet in the browser I get the following exception.

    java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission ftp.powweb.com resolve)

    Default Re: Java Applet exception when accessing an FTP server

    It's a security issues. The current security policy does not allow you to connect on specified host/port, so you will need to change the security policy. More about how to do this and the topic here (2nd half of the page): Java RMI Tutorial.

    Sign the applet. See the following:
