Running NetBeans using a Mac Network User Account

I have known this for a long time now. And today, I just happen to need NetBeans again. I am using Mac OSX 10.6 logged in as a network user. You'd think it would be easy to run NetBeans in this environment. Well, think again. I, again, forgot how to start NetBeans.

So I am writing this to share to other, and serve also as a reminder to myself.

Steps to running NetBeans:

1. Open a Terminal
2. Type the following on the Terminal

open <Path to NetBeans.app> --args -J-Dosgi.locking=none

That's it!
