Re: Need help with SecurityManager and errors thrown by JT400 class IFSFile

Hi Charles,

I'm kind of ignorant in this area, but isn't it possible to have a timeout when listening on a port, like you can with a data queue? Then the program could listen to 1 port for say 500ms, and if nothing arrived, listen on the other port for 500ms, etc.

My thought was to use security manager to

- allow it to listen only on port 3111

- allow it only to accept connections from a list of desktop
client names in the policy file

Bill,

Not familiar with Security manager, but thought I'd point out that an
applications (thread) can only listen on specific one port regardless.

If you wanted an application to listen on two ports, for instance one
unsecured and one secured like http does, you'd have to have two separate
threads running; each listening to a specific port.
