Novell SecureLogin now checks for new JREs installed on the client when Novell SecureLogin is launched. If new JREs are detected and they are allowed by user’s permissions, the new JREs are enabled for single-sign on automatically, without any user prompts or intervention.
The JRE update process requires local administrative rights on the client. If the user is not logged in with administrative rights, the update fails without displaying any notification to the user.
The JREs are updated the next time the user logs in with administrative rights and launches Novell SecureLogin on the workstation.
If a new version of Java is installed after installing Novell SecureLogin, the next time you run Novell SecureLogin, it checks for new versions of Java to enable single sign-on.
If a new version of Java (if Java is installed for the first time after Novell SecureLogin is installed) is detected, the required information must be updated in C:\Program Files\Java, and a few files must also be modified in the process. But, Microsoft Windows Vista does not permit the user to write to the C:\ProgramFiles\Java files.
To resolve this:
Stop the Novell SecureLogin application.
Locate slproto.exe > , then select .
Specify the administrator passsword.
The user is now working with administrator privileges and can successfully write to the Java folder.
In User Access Control (UAC) mode, Microsoft Windows Vista requires elevated privileges to perform certain runtime updates. Microsoft Windows Vista enforces elevated privileges for JRE updates that are required to enable single sign-on for Java applications.
NOTE:Microsoft Windows Vista does not enforce this elevation during the installation process.
For this, when a new JRE is installed on Vista client, the you must update after elevating your privileges using the Run As command and selecting the appropriate administrator command.
