Madeleine, Stupid question but is your proxy server using NTLM authentication?
I had to do some hoop jumping to get NTLM to work properly, but it's working now if you need some code.

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.
