Hi,

For some reason I cannot use Axis to access a web service through my university’s authenticating proxy. No matter what I do (set system properties, install an Authenticator, etc) it won’t add the username/password I supply to the HTTP header of the request. As a result I get back a 407 Proxy Authentication Required error.

I am using Axis 1.1, and have also tried using Axis 1.2 RC1. I notice this problem does not occur on Axis 1.0, in which the following code will do the job:

     System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "proxy_address");
     System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "proxy_port");
     System.setProperty("http.proxyUser", "proxy_username");
     System.setProperty("http.proxyPassword", "proxy_password");

I would be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction!


Kind regards,
