No problem... create a stateless session bean, and make the connection from
there. You should be familiar with the JSSE to create this ssl connection to
the credit card transaction acquirer. From this session bean, you create a
connection, send the data and wait for a response and follow your business
procedures based on that response.
some common pitfalls:
1. replace orion's ssl jars with current ones from Sun's site
2. since you are in autralia, you might want to use a different JCE
provider,
a good one can be found at www.bouncycastle.org
3. generate your server certificate request (keytool) with the RSA protocol.
Other than that, you should refer to the JSSE docs...

Subject: Credit Card Authorization
Hello,
I am working on a typical shopping cart type application based on J2EE
and we are proposing the Orion Server with our software. I am a bit
stuck with the problem of Credit Card Authorization in supplying credit
card details to a clearing house and receiving a response. I would like
to do this from the server side. The Vendor identified by us wants us to
invoke an SSL socket on a given port and send information via a standard
POST request and will return a standard response. Both the request and
response can and will be stamped with a unique reference.
The problem is the single nominated port and the fact that threads are
handled within the J2EE container.
Perhaps someone has been able to solve this problem and I would be
grateful for any suggestions or possible solutions to this problem.
regards
Gamini de Alwis
