icedtea-web doesn't check for system deployment.properties in RHEL6.5.
Issue
icedtea-webon RHEL6.5 doesn't appear to check for system (not user)deployment.propertiesanddeployment.configunder/etc/.java/deployment. This is needed to be compliant with US Gov't DISA STIG requirements for JRE environment.- When launching
/usr/bin/itweb-settings.itweb, thetesting_proxy_namedoes not appear under network settings. However adding the setting to~/.icedtea/deployment.properties, it works see below .
# mkdir -p /etc/.java/deployment/
# cat <<EOF
> deployment.system.config.mandatory=True
> deployment.system.config=file\:/etc/.java/deployment
> EOF
# cat <<EOF
> deployment.proxy.http.host=testing_proxy_name
> EOF
