I was having the same issue when I first installed NEXSM. I  
contancted the author about it, and he suggested the configure apache  
to not require authentication approach, since there is nothing in the  
jar directory that needs protection. That is done with an apache  
configuration statement like the following, just in case someone  
needs it:

<Location /nexsm/jar/>
                 Satisfy Any
                 Allow from all
</Location>

that does, of course, assume that your jar files are located at / 
nexsm/jar on your server :)

I managed to figure it out using the documentation at <http:// 
java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/solaris/jarsigner.html> and  
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/solaris/keytool.html>  
but if you have more of a "how-to" available, that would probably  
make things much easier. Either way, signing the files fixed the  
installation for me (although I do still have to click a "Trust"  
dialog every time I log in)
