Self-signing the MindTerm Applet
April 3, 2006
MindTerm is a really cool SSH client that you can stick in a webpage and run through your browser. It’s free for personal use, but the applet won’t let you connect to remote hosts unless it’s signed. Fortunately, you can sign the applet yourself in three simple steps. =)
1.) Install the java-devel package.
2.) Generate a key.
keytool -genkey
3.) Sign the archive.
jarsigner [path_to_mindterm.jar] mykey
That’s it. Enjoy!
