Applet security

Hi,

How is it possible for an applet to access an other PC by RMI without
modifiying the java.policy of the JRE because i don't want to install
something on the client's PC?

thx in advance

Olivier

As far as I know, the "java sandbox" for applets prevents this unless its a
signed applet which does require a change to the policy file.  Although, if
anyone knows of a way not to have to change the policy file, speak up!!!
