The problem you have seems to relate to bug #669043.
More on that in ./common/src/main/org/jboss/net/protocol/URLStreamHandlerFactory.java


I have the same problem with:
- Redhat 8.0
- IBMJava2-SDK-1.3.1 SR4.0 and SR5.0
- jboss 3.0.8, version in which the bug is said to be fixed.

Am I the only one?
