RE: ISA Server, IE, Yahoo Games

I put Basic authentication, but it´s the same!!
The same error...
Yes, I agree that we cannot force the Java programmers to support proxy 
servers, but why I could accede with MS Proxy 2.0 and I can´t now with Isa 
Server?
How can I use  "guest connections"?? Where I must configure it?
Because I want to try...I need know if it is the real problem...
Again
Thanks a lot

    If you see java.net.connectException error, this propably means that the 
Java program tries to open a connection from your machine to somewhere in the 
internet. And of course, this goes through the ISA server. This is a very big 
problem with ISA/ntlm authentication and Java programmes. You must do both of 
the followings;



    1)       You must enable only BASIC authentication;

    2)       The Java programme that you try to run must handle the proxy 
servers needing authentication in between. This is again explained at Sun's 
site. Briefly, when the programme tries to open a connection, it must first put 
the authentication information (encoded in Base64) into the connection header.



    Shortly, If you cannot force the Java programmers to support proxy servers, 
I could not see any possibility to run them through ISA server. Of course, you 
can try to set ISA server to use  "guest connections" for outgoing connections. 
But, probably, this not what you want from ISA server.



    We have developed some Java codes here, and seen these problems with ISA 
server. What we did was to use plug-in 1.3.1_01 and to add support into our 
Java code for the authenticating proxy servers.
