This is the new javaclient for the FireFlier project. It should compile and work with java 1.4.
If you want to connect to a server which is not running on the same machine, you will have to edit fireflier.java Search for 127.0.0.1 and replace it with the IP address of your server. This will change some time, but currently releasing fireflier 1.1.4 is more important to me.
java clients <= 1.2 will no longer be supported, as there is no SSL implementation which is free enough and works perfectly (or at least I didnt find one). On the other hand, there are windows version which dont have ANY jre and it is no longer automatically installed - so I cant rely on Internet Explorer having java applet support by default. Therefore the main reason for supporting java 1.1 has faded (there never was a newer preinstalled java version than 1.1 in IE).
