Hi,
In reading your document at:
http://java.sun.com/security/ssl/API_users_guide.html
you state.
"The java.net.URL class supports, without any modification, the
https://host/object style URL. This represents one of the
most common APIs to SSL on the client side; it layers the HTTP protocol
over SSL. In many environments, firewalls support
tunneling of HTTPS through corporate firewalls to Internet web servers
such as those for banks and brokerages, providing a
richer programming model than that which is available to socket level
programmers."
When trying to do this with the urlconnect method however I get an error
saying "unrecognized protocol". I am using server side java, jdk1.1.6.
Am I missing something?
