If you can't configure the app (Java; yuk!) to use the proxy directly, you doth
be much screwed.
You might want to see if the JRE you have installed on that host is the most
recent (from where ever you got it).
This has been the solution for many java-based apps that want to make requests
through an authenticated proxy.

Subject: [isalist] Need a Solution on FWC and Application Requiring HTTP Access
http://www.ISAserver.org
Hello all,
Could someone refresh my memory, on this solution?
I have ISA2000 Enterprise edition installed in Integrated mode in an NT 4.0
network. Using No SecuureNAT only Web Proxy and the FWC, the HTTP Redirector
is set to Reject HTTP (This must be since we use SmartFilter to filter
access, but that's another story).
I have a user running an app which connects to IBM's web site to gather
documents (Softcopy Librarian). The application's proxy settings are set to
not use proxy so it will go through the FWC, however since I have the
redirector set to deny http using the connection fails. I have changed the
redirector settings to send to the requested webpage and it works....but I
can't use that because the redir must be set to Reject HTTP...
So then I placed the name of the application executable into the FWC setup,
set it to Deny with a setting of one, this will force the app Not to use the
FWC but use the WebProxy. Then went into the app and set the proxy settings
to use the proxy server. In testing, this fails...I get a message from the
app stating:
"java.net ConnectException: Connection Refused: connect"
There was a way to get a Winsock app out via HTTP without using the Redir.
but I am at a loss to recall what the solution was...Does anyone have a
suggestion or better yet a solution..<g>...?
Thank you all for you time!!
Rick
