Short Description
Cannot connect Java Applet to Postgresql database

Long Description
I have 1 file name main.java. It has 3 classes which need to access a postgresql database. All files and database reside on the same Linux machine (RH 7.2)
I have downloaded the pgjdbc2.jar file and kept it in the same directory as the main.java file.
I then run the command:
' javac -classpath ./pgjdbc2.jar main.java '
The compiler runs and completes with no errors.
I have an SQL exception catch in my java code that prints the error to screen. When I run the applet I get the following error......

' SQLException: Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception:
Exception: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission db resolve) '

I have checked all syntax (and tried many variations), classpath variations and db access permissions etc and it is all good. The postmaster was started with the -i option (I use PGAdmin to connect from windows with the same credentials)

Please help!

Regards
Hex
