David, JDK1.4 includes the JSSE libraries, whereas 1.3 does not. Hence showing that it works in 1.4 does not prove it will work in 1.3. Probably, someone made a separate installation on your IBM 1.2, some time in the past.
Download the JSSE implementation from "http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/";. You have to follow the JSSE installation instructions including placing the JAR files in the JVM jre/lib/ext directory and then adding the security provider to the jre/lib/security/java.security file. That should fix your problem.
