getting through a proxy server

[Madeleine Wright]

Please can someone suggest the simplest way to access a URL 
programatically through a proxy server?  I'm using HttpClient and the 
proxy bits of my code look like this (everything else works fine - I can 
access all sites inside the firewall):

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
.................
client.getHostConfiguration().setProxy(proxyHost, proxyPort);
Credentials creds = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(userName, password);
client.getState().setProxyCredentials(realm, proxyHost, defaultcreds);
.......................
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(url);
I realize I seem to be supplying proxy host details twice!  But I can't 
otherwise see how to set the proxy port?  I keep getting an "access 
denied" message from the proxy server, indicating that I have not 
authenticated myself.  Does anyone know how I do that other than the 
method above (I am sure the actual proxy details given are correct).

Thanks.
Mad
