[c-nsp] Pix/PDM Problem

[Frank Bulk - iNAME]

I've had the problem that you're describing, too, but I believe that's a
separate issue from this new one we're discussing.

Actually this is a "known" problem that has existed for some time.  I
believe
there is even a PDM upgrade/update that will fix the issue.  Problem as I
understand it, is that the Java changed in the context of tightening up
security and the older PIX PDM gives errors now.  The newer PDM should
resolve that issue.  A google search for PIX PDM Java gives loads and loads
of "info"...
