Resolving external dtd's behind firewall- web service deploy

[pgrebby]

Hi

I am trying ot deploy a project with some webshere generated web services.

When I deploy the deplyment falls over as it cannot resolve the DTD being used in the web service deplyment descriptor. This is because this DTD is on teh Internet and we are behind the company firewall/proxy server.

How do I configure JBOSS to go out via the proxy server ?

Thanks.

As a stop gap I have removed the doctype definitions from webservice.xml but would still be interested in a proper fix for this.

in /server.../deploy/properties-service.xml

<attribute name="Properties">

 http.proxySet=true
 http.proxyHost=xxxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx

Hi, thanks for that, I've got a bit further, but am now getting a 407 as the proxy server needs a user and password. How do I specifiy these (I've tried proxyUser and proxyPassword but no joy).

No idea either - we appear to be using NTLM, for what it is worth. I will dig deeper.

hi again, me again.

found something,...

worth a try

basic authentication - direct and via proxy

The HTTP client invoker also has support for BASIC authentication for both proxied and non-proxied invocations. For proxied invocations, the following properties need to be set:

http.proxy.username
http.proxy.password

For non-proxied invocations, the following properties need to be set:

http.basic.username
http.basic.password

Top banana, will try that tomorrow, thanks !

OK, I have discovered that we are using NTLM based authentication, so I probably have to use something like JCIFS to authenticate
