[DC LoCo] Trouble with Java App

In firefox, go to "Tools->AddOns->Get Add-ons" and then search for "user
agent switcher".

Once this add-on is installed, you can use the drop-down toolbar to change
you user agent setting to almost any browser.

I used to use this for my internet banking which said they didn't support
firefox, but if you told them you were using IE, it all worked.

One issue with java is that the 'iced-tea' java does not work with some of
the commercial java applications. I have to install the Sun/Oracle java
package in order to access the ILOM port on my sunfire servers.

Also, 'java web start' seems to have problems with firefox. I can get it to
work, but I have to do it from the command line.

Hope this helps.
