Hi, Did anyone use SSL with Axis and Java 1.4 ? I'm trying to make it work. As I read in the Java docs, the 1.4 version does not allow to replace the socket factories for security reasons. Is this true ? Do you have any experiences ? If yes, then how does the SocketFactoryFactory class work in Axis ? As far as I know this class does exactly this thing: replaces the socket factory with Axis's own factories or some custom factory. This is what I did myself, but it does not seem to work with Java 1.4. Can you help me ? Regards, Geza
