Hi, I recently experienced some problems using xmlrpc 2.0.1 within applets behind firewalls and proxies, especially those who use ntlm authentication. While connecting directly via URLConnection works, the xmlrpc-calls fail.
I took a look at the xmlrpc-code and found this in DefaultXmlRpcTransport.sendXmlRpc(byte [] request): con.setAllowUserInteraction(false); Why would there be no UserInteraction i.e. authentication dialogs? Could anyone confirm that this is the reason that anything that goes beyond basic authentiation would fail?
