[IPT] IPT new version 2.3.4

[Peter Desmet]

Hi Matt,

Same problem. I can reach http and https GBRDS from my machine, so not
a firewall issue. When I do "java -version" I get "java version
"1.7.0_51", so I guess that is 7 and I need to upgrade to 8? Any good
tutorial for this and does that mean I'd have to update Tomcat too?

Cheers,

Peter
