Don't want to trust signed jar file

    Hey,

    I have a signed jar file which I signed using a certificate I made up myself. During the course of the project I've ticked the check box which says to always trust this certificate. Now I want the question box to be displayed again. How do I reset it so that I no longer trust this certificate?

    I'm using firefox if this helps. I tried using Preferences->Advanced->Encryption->View Certificates but I didn't see the certificate there.

    Any help appreciated.

    Firefox didn't trust your jar file and its cert, your Java vm did. So have a look in the windows control panel for the java entry. I reckon you'll find a tab for certificates in the java control panel.

    regards,

    I'm using Linux. I'll have a look around using google to see if I can figure it out. If anyone here has any ideas how to sort this out in Linux please post.

    Found it through rooting through the file system. It was at ~/.java/deployment/security/trusted.certs . I just renamed the file and it's now asking me if I want to trust the jar file again. Probably not the correct way to do it but its only for a demonstration so it'll do fine.
