Hey all,

I'm trying to retrieve a URL from my servlet using the URL class
and then making a inputreader from the URL.openstream, etc.

The problem I have is how to do this through the firewall and the proxy for
that.
I've got no idea so, please, any help is appreciated.

Even though I 'open' my account with the firewall so that it doesn't ask me
the user name and passwd (like within a browser) I still get an IOException
using the following code:
-----------------
try
  {
   search_url = new URL(Query);
   File outFile = new File(fileName);
   PrintWriter outStream = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(outFile));
   BufferedReader inStream = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(search_url.openStream()));
   String line;
   while ((line = inStream.readLine())!= null)
   {
      outStream.println(line);
   }
   inStream.close();
   outStream.close();
 } catch (MalformedURLException ex)
  {
   dbWin.println(col,"Error in doSearch: MalformedURLException occured.");
 } catch (NoRouteToHostException ex)
 {
   dbWin.println(col,"Error in doSearch: NoRouteToHostException occurred.");
 } catch (IOException ex)
  {
    dbWin.println(col,"Error in doSearch: IOException occurred.");
  }
------------

Sorry for the long code excerpt.

Thanx,
Sean.
