Hi Sandhase,

I tested this today, and got a simple Java Web Start app working both with and without network. Here's what I did:

1. Copied gluegen-rt.jar, nativewindow.all.jar, jogl.all.jar, newt.all.jar, jogl.test.jar, ant.jar, ant-junit.jar, junit.jar, and all the JOGL DLLs into one dir.
2. Created a signing key: keytool -genkey -keystore testKeys -alias ww
3. Signed all the JARs with: jarsigner -keystore testKeys ant-junit.jar ww
4. Created GearsTest.jnlp in the same dir as my JARs and DLLs:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<jnlp spec="1.0+" codebase="file://localhost/C:/Documents and Settings/wwalker/My Documents/jogl2/jws/"
  href="GearsTest.jnlp">

    <property name="sun.java2d.noddraw" value="true"/>
    <jar href="jogl.test.jar" main="true"/>
    <jar href="gluegen-rt.jar" />
    <jar href="nativewindow.all.jar" />
    <jar href="jogl.all.jar" />
    <jar href="newt.all.jar" />
    <jar href="ant.jar" />
    <jar href="ant-junit.jar" />
    <jar href="junit.jar" />
  </resources>

  <application-desc main-class="com.jogamp.opengl.test.junit.jogl.demos.gl2.gears.TestGearsAWT">
  </application-desc>
</jnlp>

5. Ran by double-clicking GearsTest.jnlp from Windows explorer.
6. Unplugged the network cable, ran it again, still works!
