I am currently working on a whiteboard application , that uses
java.net.socket as the connection method.
If MS Proxy 2 is not involved between the 2 machines then the connection
works fine.
If, on the other hand, the requestor makes the request from behind MS Proxy
2 then the connection fails.
has anyone had a similar problem, if so, some tips on how I could get around
this problem would be good.

You have to configure the proxy according to what type it is. Thank
Michael Montuori for this code...mybe you want to contract him for
some contract work

VM");

2-Microsoft VM (Default)");
System.out.println(" 3-Cisco
