The Authenticator method isn't working for me, using JDK 1.3.1_06 and JSSE 1.0.3_01. I still get the 407 error. My code works just fine under 1.4.1, however.
Is there a way to make it work under 1.3.1. Are other people having these problems with it?
Here's my code:
// get proxy and port from command line
SecureClient.proxyhost = args[2]; //
SecureClient.proxyport = args[3]; //
// set the JSSE system properties
System.setProperty("https.proxyHost", SecureClient.proxyhost);
System.setProperty("https.proxyPort", SecureClient.proxyport);
System.out.println("using proxy: "+ SecureClient.proxyhost + " port " + SecureClient.proxyport);
// now create http authentication
// this didn't work
// System.setProperty("http.proxyUser", "myuser");
// System.setProperty("http.proxyPassword", "mypassword");
// this worked in 1.4.1
Authenticator.setDefault( new httpAuthenticateProxy() );
..........................................
and here's my authenticator class:
public class httpAuthenticateProxy extends Authenticator {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
// username, password
// sets http authentication
return new PasswordAuthentication("myuser","mypassword".toCharArray());
}
}
