Java Webstart not working offline (NoRouteToHostException/UnknownHostException)?

I've found a solution by calling javaws from command line with the -offline parameter, but I find that weird that this is necessary, wondering why the system cannot automatically detect that I'm offline and therefore timeout on the check and start the app from cache, as defined in my jnlp.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
