Subject: [Networker] NW and the latest Java versions

I have a question about the version of Java that I need to run NMC with. 
At the moment, I have 3 servers running NW 7.6.2 Workgroup edition (on Win 
2008). In light of the latest Java exploit, I need to update them to Java 
1.7.11. 

Currently I am running 1.6.21, with NW 7.6.2.  These servers also run NMC. 


I think I will need to update to the latest 7.6.x revision (and it's 
accompanying NMC), before I can update the Java any higher. Correct?

Can anybody confirm that the latest NMC 7.6.4 (?) works with the latest Java 
1.7.11 update?
