JBoss Community

I would also like to know how to connect jboss through a proxy that requires authentication.

I have tried

java.net.Authenticator.setDefault(new ProxyAuthenticator("user", "pass"));
           System.setProperty("http.proxySet", "true");
           System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "proxy"); 
           System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "8080");

with  this authenticator

import java.net.PasswordAuthentication;

public class ProxyAuthenticator extends java.net.Authenticator{

      private String user, password; 
      
         public ProxyAuthenticator(String user, String password) { 
             this.user = user; 
             this.password = password; 
         } 
      
         protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() { 
             return new PasswordAuthentication(user, password.toCharArray()); 
         } 
}

and I receoive a HTTP 407 proxyauthentication error.

The reason I need to do this is to access an external webservice from within a jboss app.
