Hi All,
I've seen a number of post about Proxy Authentication, but none that seams to address this problem.
I'm building a SharePoint Web Service consuming desktop application, using Java, JAX-WS in NetBeans. I have a working prototype, that can query the server for authentication mode, successfully authenticate and retrieve a list of web site.
However, if I run the same app from a network that is behind a proxy server (the proxy does not require authentication), then I'm running into trouble.
The normal -dhttp.proxyHost ... settings does not seam to help any.
But I have found that by creating a ProxySelector class and setting it as default, I can regain access to the authentication web service, but I still can't retrieve the list of web sites from the SharePoint server.
It's almost as if the authentication I provide is going to the proxy rather than the SharePoint server.
Anyone have any experience on how to make this work?
I have put the source text java class files of a demo app up, showing the issue at the following urls (it's a bit to long even in the short demo form to post here).

When running the code from a network behind a proxy server, I successfully retrieve the Authentication mode from the server, but the request for the Web Site list generates an exception originating at:
com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client
.HttpClientTransport.readResponseCodeAndMessage(HttpClientTransport.java:201)
The output from the source when no proxy is on the network is listed below:
Successfully retrieved the SharePoint WebService response for Authentication
SharePoint authentication method is: WINDOWS
Calling Web Service to retrieve list of web site.
