Thanks André! This is what I was suspecting too. We were using jrun prior and jrun was proxying for us automatically. Unfortunately I am not really a java person and do not know how to answer the library question you posed. I think we will need our java developers look in to this from java perspective.

So you may have been looking for information in the wrong places. It is your application making a connection to some outside endpoint, and Tomcat knows nothing about it. The only thing in common between your application and Tomcat, is that they both run in the same JVM. So if you set a global JVM option "-D", this impacts *everything* that runs in that JVM : Tomcat, other applications, and your own application. You probably need to find a way to set these properties for your application only (or for that connection only). Sadly, I don't know java well-enough to know if that is possible in this case. What library are you using, to make that HTTP call ? Look there first. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org DISCLAIMER: This electronic mail message and any attached files contain information intended for the exclusive use of the intended addressee and may contain information that is proprietary, privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
