After beating my head against a wall trying to get command-line
working from Netscape on a Mac, I finally read the webclient
README, which says:

  The Macintosh Netscape Browser does not support JDK 1.1.5. The Enterprise
  Management client cannot be used on Macintosh with a Netscape Browser

Is this an IBM punt, or is there some hope that eventually this will work
from a Mac?

<rant>
Also, I was rather annoyed to see the reliance on JavaScript which as we
all know (sing along if you'd like) IS NOT SECURE.

OTOH, this _will_ probably be nice for my operators (if I can get them off
of their Macs)...
