Thanks for the idea Oleg, ill run it over with my admins, you could be
right because our AuthSSLProtocolSocketFactory is working just fine in
both environments.

Kumar,

Here's my theory. I think previously the Websphere 5.0 server used so
called self-signed certificate, which EasyProtocolSocketFactory is meant
to trust without verification. Now the Websphere 5.1 server is using a
certificate signed by a certificate authority not trusted by the
standard TrustManager. EasyProtocolSocketFactory delegates verification
of non-self-signed certificates to the standard TrustManager, hence
"unknown certificate" exception.

See the HttpClient SSL guide for details [1]. You may especially want to
take a look at the AuthSSLProtocolSocketFactory and use it (or derive
your own implementation from it) to configure the SSL context the way
you want
