Permission: java.util.PropertyPermission dnsjava.options read not granted to org.xbill.DNS.Options

Project:JNode Core
Component:Code
Category:bug report
Priority:minor
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:active
Description

As I experiment with Jnode, I have run into a situtation where every application I try to run on Jnode is killed by the SecurityManager for some reason. However, these programs all run in other JVMs on other OSes without modification.

So, I wrapped checkPermission with a try-catch to see what was happening.

OS: Jnode 0.2.6-dev (svn r3688 from trunk)
Exception: java.util.PropertyPermission dnsjava.options read not granted to org.xbill.DNS.Options
Action taken at time of Exception: resolver add
Repeatability: 100%

I am submitting these as bugs so they can be fixed in the tree sooner.
I will try fixing my local copy by hand according to the notes at http://www.jnode.org/node/156

I added a PropertyPermission and resolved this.

Here's a patch:

I think I've fixed this one. Can you verify it with the latest version?

When I start networking, I do not see the xbill permission message on my test box anymore.

One down, one to go, it seems:

I get no permission notices when I bring up the interface and add resolvers.

When I ping 'www.clusty.com', I do see:
