Ive come across the com.sun.* issue before. They are part of the JVM, just not officially documented for public use. Usually, they are convenience classes written by Sun programmes who develop the JDK. AFAIK, Sun says that you can use them if you wish, but their use is not recommended, purely on the basis that they may disappear from one JDK release to the next.
What are the com.sun.* classes being used here for, specifically? It may be possible to
use "official" classes for this functionality.

From what I've been able to gather there are "official classes" as of
jdk 1.4. Prior to that these were a separate package, the JSSE.
So I guess there are three possibilities:
1. Use the javax.net.ssl classes. (Out of the question because of our
mandate to support 1.3)
2. Do what Paul and Josejuan did - use the com.sun classes
3. Maybe. use the javax.net.ssl classes but document that if used with
JDK < 1.4, jsse.jar must be on the classpath.
Has anyone on this list had experience with these type of issues?
(technical, not legal).
