Hi David,

no problem. The best info about the java webstart can be find here:

a javawebstart application for some test could be here:

To lunch a Java webapplication on a system you need a installed java and e.g. on Windows the "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaws.exe"
To run the application you must start the application jnlp file so a Windows shortcut could be:

"C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaws.exe" http://10.10.10.12///app/test.jnlp

So all what we need is the possibiliy to add a shortcut into RDM with a pointer to the jnlp file and the javaws.exe.

I hope this helps.
If not please le me know.

Hi,
very good, it's an excellent candidate for an AddOn. The next version support that and I think that I will add this as a sample.

Hi David,

i think you can use the "Command Line" template for the JavaWebstart and associate with the javaws.exe or another java icon. (Copy of this template)
I have try it and it works, because you can run the whole command in a Windows command window, on the other hand the jnlp extension is by windows default assigned to the javaws.exe.

It doesn´t work for me with my Equallogic. The credentials form is empty.

Any hint how to do that?

You could try to create an auto typing macro in the Event tab page.
