You will usually see this if the GNU Crypto provider is not
installed. You need to either install it at run-time, like this:

  java.security.Security.installProvider (new gnu.crypto.jce.GnuCrypto ());

Or, by adding an entry into /usr/local/lib/security/classpath.security
(the location of that file depends on where you installed GCJ):

  security.provider.N=gnu.crypto.jce.GnuCrypto

Hmm, this should be a FAQ :)
