Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

I'm behind a firewall. I've checked most of the posting in the forum and on the Internet. Most get by using the java.net.Authenticator class, and setting default properties such as https.proxyHost, https.proxyUserName, https.proxyPassword etc. I've tried all that!!! Still doesn't work.

Here's the error msg I get:

As you can see it's pretty messy, and I've tried getting around the HTTPS proxy in a variety of methods, but with no results.

Please help.

Rgds,
frustrated.
