Jar Signature Object

The Jar signature common object identifies the Java archives (JARs) that you want the Screen to pass. You can manipulate it through the administration GUI or the configuration editor. JAR signatures apply only to the HTTP proxy.

The Jar signature object is automatically saved when it is edited or a new Jar signature object is added. The change is saved immediately and is not repealed if the edit session is aborted. The Save button in the administration GUI remains greyed out, indicating that no Save is necessary due to such changes.

Jar signature objects are named, and their name space is distinct from all others within SunScreen. The name of a Jar signature object is entirely ephemeral; it is not referenced in any other context by SunScreen. The name consists of 1 to 255 characters, not including the following:

! # $ % ^ & * { } [ ] < > " \ ? ` / @ NULL

Each Jar signature object has a value part. This value is a 32-character hex digit MD5 hash value. It is used to verify the integrity of Java archives (JARs) that are allowed through the SunScreen HTTP proxy.
