On Windows, If "Save this Password in your password list" is selected, next time the authentication dialog will not come out again and this decision is kept in the file "<deployment_user_home>/security/auth.dat".
While on mac, that is not the case. Once the password is saved. We cannot make the authentication dialog show up again.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Try to launch http://rehte.cn.oracle.com:8080/FXBasicAuth/auth/jnlp/Hello.jnlp
2) Input java/duke, select "Save this Password in your password list" and click OK.
3) On windows, observe "<deployment_user_home>/security/auth.dat". is generated, while on mac, no such file is generated.
4) On windows, Run "javaws -uninstall" and remove "<deployment_user_home>/security/auth.dat". The authentication dialog is able to show up again when launch the application next time. While on mac, there is no way to make the authentication dialog comes up again.
