JAVA Password Needed - Networking

[Nightcrawler]

Hiya,

I'm coming up against Password Needed - Networking. Im behind a proxy and I can surf the web fine. However this comes up when a java applet is required. Scheme is NTML... I have tried a fw things on the proxy but am a bit stuck.

It apperently happens after version 1.4.3. It works fine when no proxy is in the way. The proxy is Microsoft Proxy 2.

I have read peoples replys on other forums and nobody seems to know why ??

One page is

http://www.advfn.co.uk

then click monitor - this would envoke the response for example.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Ed

No idea what this has got to do with Java as a programming language - more of a network issue surely ?

To be sincere, I've visited the page and still can't figure out what is the incorrect behaviour.

Cheers,

Hi,

The error is only if your going through a proxy or NTLM authentication realm. Pre Java 1.4 Jave used to get password and user information from the browser - it no longer cando that and therefore goes on its own - however it must handle it differently as my browser authicates fie but java has a problem....

THanks

Ed

I just get a page asking me for a login and a password.

Rather than a bug, that sounds like a security fix to me.

I guess you will have to fix the source code so that it prompts for the user's name and password within the applet.

I'm going through a proxy, no errors.
