How to fix this compile error with jdk 1.5.0_14 on windows 2000:
AsnName.java:144: package com.ibm.security.x509 does not exist
encoding = (new
com.ibm.security.x509.X500Name(mName)).getEncoded();

That sounds like a JCE class. In 1.4+ it comes with the JDK.

Normally you don't use vendor specific classes. You get at them via
the generic interfaces with strings to define which implementation you
want.

Seehttp://mindprod.com/jgloss/jce.html

However, the classes you want probably live in

F:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_04\jre\lib\jce.jar

Just put the jar on your ide's library path.

I still have the same error even though CLASSPATH is set:
CLASSPATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_14\lib\jce.jar;.
.
