11.04 - Run jnlp applications with root permissions



There is an application called KeyToolIUI, a java application that works with certificates, I want to give to it the root permission to be able to edit cacerts, when I am trying to run it from terminal as root, it gives me the following error:




root@deveto: ~# -bash: keytool-iui.jnlp: Permission denied





Should I run it in other way? or it isn't possible?



personally I would preferably not start java applications as root.



If you want to run it you should try sth like this:



javaws foo.jnlp



Details would be necessary to help you more.



greetings from Switzerland, Michael
