Okay, I just have tried to create a JNLP file to launch the JAR file that
is stored on a samba share but I'm still facing the same problem that we
are encountering from the beginning: "smb://" protocol is not detected ;-(
If I place the "test.jnlp" file locally it can be run (it fails because
it looks for a signature file that seems to be missed from the original
jar but anyway it recognizes the JAR and tries to launch it), but when I
put the same "test.jnlp" file over a samba share and run the app from a
linux client it does not work "(java.io.FileNotFoundException: smb:/host/
share/test.jnlp (No such file or directory)".
Needless to say the same "test.jnlp" that is located on the network share
runs fine when it's launched from a windows client ;-(
