Axis 1.2 - Authenticating proxy

Hi all,

For some reason I cannot use Axis to access a web service through my 
university’s authenticating proxy. No matter what I do (set system 
properties, install an Authenticator, etc) it won’t add the 
username/password I supply to the HTTP header of the request. As a result I 
get back a 407 Proxy Authentication Required error.

Setting http.proxyUser and http.proxyPassword works for me on Axis 1.0 but 
not 1.1 or 1.2.

I would be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction!


Kind regards,
