JAAS can't read config from JAR
We have an application that uses JAAS for security.
Until now the JAAS config file was in a folder (conf/) and the application just ran fine.
To prepare for the deployment of the application with Webstart I packed the folder with the config file in the application's JAR. Now JAAS can't seem to find the file anymore.
Working:|--application.jar
|--conf/
|--auth.conf
Failing:|--application.jar
|--conf/
|--auth.conf
Both have the same manifest:Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.5
Created-By: 1.5.0_04-b05 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: com.fpc.nokeos.core.client.launch.Launcher
Class-Path: . conf
I also tried expliciitely adding "conf/auth.conf" to manifest but it didn't work either.
The stacktrace I get is08:57:42,250 - ERROR: [NokeosClientSecurity] Could not connect to the server.
Please check your network connection.

How can I make it work?
