Re: [cobalt-developers] Need help with tomcat.policy with Javamail

[Timothy Stonis <timothy.stonis@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Jack,

 You'll need to give more permission to the servlet. Create a file called:

  /usr/java/jakarta-tomcat/conf/tomcat.policy.custom

  Put in the following line:

 permission 
java.net.SocketPermission"localhost:1024-","connect,accept,listen,resolve";

  This should do the trick. If not, and you're sure you trust all the
servlets running on your machine,  you can give the servlet full permissions
by adding:

  permission java.security.AllPermission;

 to tomcat.policy.custom.
