The stack trace makes me think you are running an applet inside Netscape.
In this setup, the two common causes for this type of error are:

1.  Your default classpath includes "classes.zip" from a JDK (90% chance
this is the problem).  Do you have Java installed on this PC?  If yes, does
the PC's default classpath contain lib\classes.zip from the JDK?  This can
be a problem because the browser may be getting JDK classes from two
different places.  The browser comes with a JDK but if you have classes.zip
in your classpath, the browser sometimes gets classes from the PC's JVM,
not this one it ships with.  The two are rarely compatible so you will see
strange results.  Solution -- take classes.zip out of CLASSPATH.  As long
as the JDK is in your PATH (ie, ...\bin), you don't need classes.zip in
classpath.  The JDK automatically adds classes.zip to classpath so go ahead
and take it out.

2. No AS400 object available to AS400Text object (40% chance this is the
problem -- but, if number 1 is the problem, there is a 70% chance you will
hit this next).  The JVMs ship a set of ebcdic <--> unicode conversion
tables.  The Toolbox uses these tables for conversion where possible.  If a
table does not exist, the Toolbox gets the table off the AS/400, then does
the conversion.  The browsers do not ship any tables so the Toolbox always
has to get them from the AS/400.  To facilitate this, you must give the
AS400Text object an AS400 object.

I hope this helps.

When I use following statement to connect to AS/400

     system.connectService(AS400.RECORDACCESS);

I got the following messages.  Is this the security violation ?  If it is
correct, can I get the information from "Java Network Security" red book?
