having deployed my application via webstart, the application 
is unable to open https connections. http still works.

[SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Client; msg=Error opening socket: null;
targetException=java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error opening socket:
null]
        at org.apache.soap.transport.http.SOAPHTTPConnection.send(Unknown
Source)
        at org.apache.soap.rpc.Call.invoke(Unknown Source)
        at abfdv_client.Options.testConnection(Options.java:616)
        ...

for webstart i had to change the code to include https support. (from an
example 
on javas developer forum)
  static
  {
    // enable https connections
    //Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
    java.security.Security.addProvider(new
com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
    java.net.URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory(new
java.net.URLStreamHandlerFactory() {
        public java.net.URLStreamHandler createURLStreamHandler(final String
protocol) {
            if ("https".equals(protocol)) {
                return new
com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol.https.Handler();
            }
            return null;
        }
    });
    // This is a kludge to get JSSE to use the cacerts keystore from
WebStart
    // not sure if i need it
    if (System.getProperty("javawebstart.version") != null) {
        System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore",
System.getProperty("jnlpx.home") + System.getProperty("file.separator") +
"cacerts");
        if (System.getProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword") == null)
{
            System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword",
"changeit");
        }
    }
  }

this new code still works from the command line.

- tested 1.3.1-b24 and 1.4.0-b96 both from command line and webstart
- i think i got all necessary jar included:
    <resources>
        <j2se version="1.3+" max-heap-size="256M"/>
