Steve, The equivalent way to pass parameters in MacOS X is to edit the Info.plist located inside the application. Find the XML Editor, control-click on it and pick "Show Package Contents". Navigate inside the "Contents" folder and open Info.plist with Property List Editor (should be the default). Click on the expanding triangles for "Root" and "Java" and "Properties"; click on "apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar" and pick "New Sibling" at the top of the window - do one of these for each of the properties that you want to add. I'm not sure whether the socks configuration that Hussein posted will help, since it sounds like it's an HTTP proxy. The best info I can find implies that HTTP proxy authentication has to be performed by a layer above the java http level, e.g., I find properties like jxta.proxy.user and jxta.proxy.password but not http.
