OK.. Then, it is what I expected. The package Apache XML-RPC doesn't provide 
an interface to easily tunnel firewall.
I have to build my own XML-RPC Client class with an HttpUrlConnection an so 
on... or to get an already built one.

Thanks for all !

Olivier.

If you can't find support for it in the XML-RPC client, use an
external tool like SSH, stunnel, etc.
