How to disable all network connections in Java

Question

Is there a way to run Java VM (java.exe) on Windows Server 2008 and disable all network connections using a command line argument or a system variable?

Answer 1

Well, I haven't tried that but theoretically you could set the system properties for SOCKS proxy to a non-existent one and according to the documentation all TCP sockets will be tried through the SOCKS proxy - and fail.

Something like this:

java -DsocksProxyHost=127.0.0.1 SomeClass
