Hello, Java HTTP clients (HTPURLConnection) can use a limited functionality of the system proxy. If you use Applet/JWS it is also configured on the cotnrol panel.

You would use storeType=Windows-MY or Windows-root: C:> keytool -list -storetype Windows-MY Keystore-Typ: Windows-MY Keystore-Provider: SunMSCAPI PNRP (Naming), PrivateKeyEntry, Zertifikat-Fingerprint (SHA1): xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.. BitLocker, trustedCertEntry, Zertifikat-Fingerprint (SHA1): xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx... Eckenfels. Bernd, PrivateKeyEntry, Zertifikat-Fingerprint (SHA1): xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.. ...
