This is version 0.9 of FONnector. To use it you need a java installation which accepts the FON SSL certificates (any 1.4 or 1.5 version should do, 1.3 may need some tweaking). HOWTO: 0) Make sure that you have a Java Virtual Machine installed. 1) Download FONnector.jar. 2) On Windows/MacOS doubleclick FONnector.jar to get the GUI version. FINER CONTROL: In a shell or cmd.exe type: java -jar FONnector.jar your@email yourpassword If you get an error indicating an SSL handshake error, download the file fon.cacerts and start the application like this: java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=fon.cacerts -jar FONnector.jar your@email yourpassword Enjoy, Joachim PS: Yes, I know setting the trustStore is a pain, I could do this programmaticly - but that would break compatibility with JDK1.3. I REALLY think, that FON should use a "standard" certificate authority instead.
