Helo,

I'm trying to open pdf documents that require authentication
in OSX 10.6.3 with AcrobatReader 9.3.2 . It doesn't work !

Adobe R. It tells me :
"the computer must be connected to the network in order to open this document"
Of course the computer is connected to the network !

I tried to open the same document under A.R. in Windows in a Parallels
virtual machine
and it works. So the file is ok. The problem is in the version of A.R. of OSX.

As far is i know i didn't set any application firewall.

Did some of you find the same problem ? Is it solvable in some way ?

bye

n.

This document can be opened only with Adobe Reader AFAIK.
It's a spec. to read the document you HAVE to use that.
Preview gives me a blank page with no errors nor complaints.

If possilbe i wouldn't install another software, i'll keep your suggestion
as last resort.
