Java Policy and Security Documents

Hi Lotus Gurus,

Are Java.policy and Java.security files same across notes user client machines?

If we grant write permission in policy file, will it have any risk involved with it?

Many thanks in advance.

Thanks,

If the question is whether you can write a permission centrally and have it propagate to all the client machines, I doubt it. If the question is if you write a permission to allow the Notes client to do something, will it affect Java across the whole machine or just Notes, the answer I believe is that it will only affect the particular JVM that Notes uses. If something else uses that same JVM, then all bets are off. You can have more than one JVM on a machine of course which can be quite maddening.
