Reproducibility: 100%

To reproduce please do the following:
1. Install 1.4.2_16-ea-b01 jre.
2. Run javaws and set log file to either "/tmp/javaws.log" or "C:/javaws.log" depending on whether unix or windows.
3. Clean your cache by running "./javaws -uninstall" first.
4. Run either of the testcases as follows:

# ./javaws http://nicole1.sfbay.sun.com:8080/JavawsTest/https/https_hostnomatch.jnlp

OR

# ./javaws http://nicole1.sfbay.sun.com:8080/JavawsTest/https/https_selfcert.jnlp

5. Check "/tnp/javaws.log" or "C:/javaws.log" for logout.
Comments
EVALUATION This bug has been caused by the incorrect jsse.jar file being putback for 1.4.2_17b01 (old _16 b01). It's been already reported in 6450310 and the correct jsse.jar fix has been made available for (1.4.2_17-b02). I've verified the fix works and will close out this CR as a dup of 6450310.
