Hello,

I'm using CInclude to obtain data from local and remote servers. This works fine on my desktop, but in our production environment I need to use a proxy server to connect to external URLs.

I've checked Sun's network documentation* and found that you can configure proxying using system properties. The Tomcat documentation** also explains how to pass these properties when starting Catalina. For example, I could add the following to startup.sh or to a script that calls startup.sh:

export JAVA_OPTS='-Dhttp.proxyHost=wwwcache.ebi.ac.uk -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=*.ebi.ac.uk|localhost -DproxySet=true'

Before I bug our systems people, does anyone know if this works?

I checked the CInclude source code [http://tinyurl.com/ozqnm] but couldn't figure out it if uses the java.net libraries to make remote connections.

Cheers,

Antony
