STD: jdb fails with hotspot

Name: ca25432 Date: 05/26/99

With hotspot, jdb start to initialize
but fails looking for a password as if for
a remote debug.

jdb:
javac -g SimpleJdbTest.java
jdb SimplejdbTest
get:
initializing jdb...
Failed acessing debugging session on micron: invalid passwd.

From another user:

If I run jdb, I receive the message 'Failed accessing
debugging session on home: invalid password' immediately after
the 'Initializing jdb...' message. This occurs whether the
command line for jdb is enter as 'jdb <enter>' or
'jdb pkg.mainclass <enter>'.
   java -version returns:
java version "1.2.1"
HotSpot VM (1.0fcs, mixed mode, build E)

   java -fullversion returns:
java full version "JDK-1.2.1-A"

  If I move the hotspot directory out from the bin directories
where they were installed (c:\jdk1.2.1\jre\bin and
c:\program files\javasoft\jre\1.2\bin), then jdb runs again.
