I think there is a better way. I had installed both 4.0b5 and 4.0b6, and after upgrading to 4.0b6, I got the same error message about "no valid policy file was found". I then went and checked the "~root/.netscape/policyMoz40P1.jar", but it seems that 4.0b6 doesn't even have this file. It now uses "/usr/local/netscape/moz40p3". (BTW, you can use "unzip -v /usr/local/netscape/moz40p3" to see what is in it. ^_^) No, you don't have to copy that file into your ~/.netscape/ either. Rather, as recommended in README.install, set the environment variable MOZILLA_HOME to /usr/local/netscape. For convenience, you may leave the main binary "netscape" in /usr/local/netscape, and use the following script as /usr/local/bin/netscape: #!/bin/bash EXPORT MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/local/netscape /usr/local/netscape/netscape or, you may prefer #!/bin/bash MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/local/netscape /usr/local/netscape/netscape (I am kind of new to shell programming, so I don't know which one is better. ^_^) Anyway, after doing so, the error message about encryption went away. ^_^ Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling [EMAIL PROTECTED] Civil Engineering http://www.ualberta.ca/~foka/ University of Alberta, Canada Keep smiling! *^_^* -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
