Hi,
I have installed OpenJDK and icedtea-web on my Arch system for the purpose of accessing KVM/IPMI consoles of servers. I see they are working fine, but due to high security, access to console ports in KVM are being blocked by java. Check the screenshot here
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_101"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.6) (Arch Linux build 7.u101_2.6.6-1-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.95-b01, mixed mode)
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ javaws -version
icedtea-web 1.6.2
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ ll /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
total 88
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 9 22:05 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 12 07:54 ../
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 May 12 16:49 IcedTeaPlugin.so -> /usr/share/icedtea-web/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so*
Any idea how to override this and give exception for the particular KVM/IPMI URL I am trying to access/work on?.

Hey all, I sorted this out myself
I removed all the current IcedTea Java stuff from the system and then installed jre from AUR >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jre
Install command:
yaourt -S jre
You will have the following Java related binaries installed on the system:
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_92"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_92-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.92-b14, mixed mode)
and java web start
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ javaws
Java(TM) Web Start 11.92.2.14-fcs
Usage: javaws [run-options] <jnlp-file>
javaws [control-options]
where run-options include:
-verbose display additional output
-offline run the application in offline mode
-system run the application from the system cache only
-Xnosplash run without showing a splash screen
-J<option> supply option to the vm
-wait start java process and wait for its exit
control-options include:
-viewer show the cache viewer in the java control panel
-clearcache remove all non-installed applications from the cache
-uninstall remove all applications from the cache
-uninstall <jnlp-file> remove the application from the cache
-import [import-options] <jnlp-file> import the application to the cache
import-options include:
-silent import silently (with no user interface)
-system import application into the system cache
-codebase <url> retrieve resources from the given codebase
-shortcut install shortcuts as if user allowed prompt
-association install associations as if user allowed prompt
Reducing the security level and URL exception for security check can be done through javaws control panel.
Open javaws control panel using the following command and do it through 'security' tab on it.
[buddy@archlinux ~]$ javaws -viewer
Marking this as resolved
