HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authorization Required

843811Jul 2 2003 — edited Jun 22 2005

I am trying to work with a java.net.HttpURLConnection object on a http:// url. The JVM runs behind a firewall. I do get a response code of 200 (OK), but only 'sometimes'. Most of the times I get a "HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy Authorization Required" message.

Also, if I use a https:// url, I get the same 407 message.

Can anyone explain this inconsistency? Please help.
