Connect to Server HTTPs through Proxy Server Problem

I am trying to connect through a company proxy via port 8080 to a https connection on a server so that it can mount on a desktop. Using 10.4.11 on Mac Pro
The connection works http through the company network and works http and https through my home network. The company require we use secure connections or something they will supply which will be out of date and clunky to use. I am using FullSwitch as a workflow so need the volume to mount.
Basically I do the following:
Go
Connect to Server
type address https://??????????????????/???????
I then get a Proxy Auth where I put my domain, user name and password
A certificate is then returned and I press continue
It then attempts to pass through the proxy tunnel to connect but just keeps going and going......
It should come up at this point with the server login but it doesn't
We are told by the IT team which only supports PCs that it is then that the Mac tries to create 2000+ connections but doesn't just creates lots of network traffic.
In between us and the proxy we sit behind a firewall but are told that there are no rules to stop https etc. I can connect to the site through Safari via https but as I need to upload files I need to be able to mount via https as a volume
Are there any suggestions as to what the issue may be or questions that I can try and ask IT to gather more info?
Many thanks

Many thanks for your reply. We can use ftp but can not tunnel sftp through the proxy.
As I use fullswitch for automation I would like to keep the simplicity of mounting the server as files can be uploaded easily. Currently using http no problems but am being forced to use https from IT Security and of course being in a large corporation with only 35 Macs they say they don't support Macs and hey you have to do it our way or else. Driving me mad.
Sorry for going off on one but it is so frustrating as the supplier we are sending to wants the files the way we currently send them as they have their system workflow but my company wants us to use their sftp system that is clunky for in and out going file connections forcing suppliers to go to our sftp servers and not us supplying to them.....................
Right then I currently use Transmit with Type 7 on the proxy type for FTPing files using FTP Protocol not SFTP and have no problems going to the sites we have asked to get specific access to (again takes 2-14 days to get all the firewall rules changed to allow access to new ftp sites we are given, very efficient working practice)
So as you can see I really want to get the https working as it is the best option for workflow if IT security want us to secure.
Many thanks, again sorry for my ranting

    Hi Friendz,
    I am new to J2EE. Right now I am learning RMI, Corba now.

  • Applet using socket connection always go through proxy server

    Socket connection with socks always go through proxy server
    We have two applets in different codebases using socket to talk to each other, until now nothing new, but the problem is that we are behind a proxy server with socks and because of that, the connection always go through the proxy server even with proxy override point to the applet machine. We have tried a lof of things and until now nothing worked, it looks like the socket is ignoring proxy override configuration. We would like to know if there is a way to solve this problem making the applets comunicate to each other ignoring the proxy server. It should happen when we set the plug-in option to "no proxy host", but it doesn't. Maybe it can be a bug of JVM, I don't know, just maybe, and if it's true, any other good idea would be welcome as well.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I am not very much sure if I can help you. In my previous experience, once you set the system property to use the proxy, then the jvm uses the proxy. If you want disable, in your code, you have to disable it.
    like System.setProperty("socksProxyHost","someHost"), Properties props = System.getProperties(); props.remove(("socksProxyHost");

    You can also use the HTTP-DC project.... You don't
    need Web Enterprise for this. From what I can tell,
    this is available in L.x on....
    There is api documentation in M.2 (with scant
    examples.)
    There's a special process to put the project in your
    repository (it isn't installed in the repository in
    the standard install,) the documentation in M.2
    (probably in M.0 too, AFAIK) that tells you how to do
    this (look for HTTP-DC in the online help.)
    I haven't done much with it yet, I've just installed
    it. If anybody out there has examples, that'd be
    great. I'll try to contribute more the moment I get a
    chance to explore it....

  • Adding Pix device public interface through Proxy server into CSM Fails

    Hi
    I am trying to add a device into CSM. The device is only reachable through proxy server. If i try to add the device, the connectivity test fails" unable to communicate with device". If i debug on the PIX i see no connection attemps. If imake a https connection from the Explorer from the windows server running CSM i get connected. I have set the proxy settings under Server Administration. I can update packages from CCO through the proxy. Is there somewhere else to tell CSM to run through proxy ?

    Hello,
    maybe your problem has to do something with loading SLPDA.NLM. If you
    cannot get to open Autoexec.ncf then go back to DOS-Mode, rename this
    file in C:\nwserver-directory and start again. i have seenthis behaviour
    on servers loading SLPDA with no network-communication and they stop
    loading at WPSD.NLM. Try to load SLPD.NLM manually when the server is
    up. After that shift the line in Autoexec.ncf where you want to load
    Slpda.NLM to the end of the file and boot the server again to see what
    happens.
    Good luck

  • Cannot access server in HQ through proxy server

    Hi Experts,
    We have a TMG 2010 installed and clients are accessing Internet through it.
    And now there is an access problem to the destinatined server in HQ in another country, and it was fine to reach the destinated server before the servere changed its IP.
    When trying to accesss the destinated server with new IP, the TMG log and report shows the connection status with
    12030: The connection with the server was terminated abnoramlly.
    While there is another guest segment that allows Internet access without proxy server, and they are able to access the server with no problem at all.
    When I captured packets using Wireshark from the pc and found that the connection was actually from the pc to proxy server with the following result:
    from PC to Proxy server
    CONNECT xxx.xxx.com:443 HTTP/1.0
    from Proxy server to PC
    HTTP/1.1 502 Proxy Error (The connection with the server was terminated abnormally) (text/html)
    Would there be a configuration problem inside TMG?
    When i include the domain in https inspection exemption list, is that means client would be able to reach ther destination without being inspected?
    Then how about the incoming connection? Is there any rules which will restrict HTTPS inbound?
    Apart from above problem, clients also not able access some of https website such as banking with CA's, and no problem using guest segment (not through proxy server).
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    >>And now there is an access problem to the destinatined server in HQ in another country, and it was fine to reach the destinated server before the servere changed its IP.
    Have you tried to re-create the rule to access the destinatined server after it changed the IP?
    >>When i include the domain in https inspection exemption list, is that means client would be able to reach ther destination without being inspected?
    When a site is added to the HTTPS inspection exclusion list, Forefront TMG does not check the site’s certificate for expiration or revocation. However, name mismatch and trust are always checked, unless the “No Validation” mark is set.

  • How do I send HTTP request to a server via a proxy server in JDK 1.4?

    JDK 1.5 's URL class provides an overloaded version of openConnection() which accepts an object of type Proxy using which we can establish connection with a remote server via a proxy server, but JDK 1.4 doesn't provide any such overloaded version. How do I do that in JDK 1.4? Even if I had a class that can create HTTP packets for me, then I could have established Socket connection with the proxy server and sent the HTTP packet to it. Is there a way to do that also?

    There are some system properties, which can be set with System.setProperty [http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/properties.html]

  • HTTP + HTTPS Relay Proxy Server

    Hello all,
    I've found numerous tutorials on how to create a regular HTTP Proxy but there is nothing out there that at least hints on how to relay or forward HTTPS .
    The idea is simple:
    Client (Firefox browser) <-> HTTP(s) Proxy Server(that I want to write) <-> Internet Site
    http requests are going through just fine, but once I go to https://www.something.com - game over :(
    any advice on where to start ?

    from lots of reading i figured out that i need 2 things:

  • What port for osx server web services proxy server?

    I was just wondering, my server has a proxy server working on 10.1.0.xxx what should i put in the client mac network settings so it can use the proxy server should i point it at 10.1.0.xxx or the domain name and what port is the usual for the proxy server?

    There is no set standard for the port number. It's whatever you configured.
    As for hostname vs. IP address - it doesn't really matter. If the client can resolve the hostname correctly then you can use that.
    Personally, though, I'd always use a hostname such as 'proxy.mydomain.com' so that I could easily move the proxy service to a different machine if needed just by changing the DNS entry (not something that is easy to do if you have many machines all connecting via IP address).

    To clarify, if it helps, I have a database of event dates and and details which I wish to query in order to show the most imminent event on one page, and to display all forthcoming events on another.
    I would be happy to delve into whatever package is required to achieve this, but would prefer not to go down a whole set of blind alleys to get where I am going.
    If the recommendation is to find and install the original extensions, then great, but I don't have them in my Dreamweaver CC package. If there is a better, more up to date option then great; I am guessing/hoping that Adobe would not have taken one method away if there wasn't a better alternative.
    A push in the right direction would be most appreciated.

  • NIO through proxy server

    I have an Apache web server that is configured to proxy a URL to a java server that I have behind the proxy server. My clients send data through a URLConnection to a specific URL in which redirects it to my java server behind the proxy. My java server has a ServerSocket that gets the request from the proxy and then uses the PrintStream to send data back through the proxy to my clients (Which is an applet). I would like to use the NIO non blocking but the problem is when I create a Channel the only thing that can be written on that Socket Chanel is a ByteBuffer. Because it is a ByteBuffer gets passed the proxy server can not handle the request and thus will not forward it on to my clients. PrintStream currently does this for me and allows this to work. Any ideas how I can use NIO channels to write data that a proxy server will be able to understand? I was thinking of using the ftp proxy instead of http proxy and have not tried that yet but then I would have to have my java server understand ftp protocol......Would really just like to do sockets connections with NIO. Any help would be greatfully appreciated.

    Here is a good question that I found fixed my problem. Within my application I have a SocketChannel. When writing through a proxy with an HTTP Header in the front of all my data it doesn't seem to go through the proxy server at all. However, when getting a Socket object from my SocketChannel and then using the OutputStream of the Socket (PrintStream api) will end up pushing the data out through the proxy. What isthe difference between using the write method from the SocketChannel compared to getting a Socket object from the SocketChannel and using its OutputStream to write data?
