If the *only* port that your company's firewall is listening on is 8443, then there's nothing you can do, as all traffic to other ports (e.g. 443 for SSL) will be dropped. If there's some kind of proxy in between, then you could use port forwarding, where the client request for port 443 is translated to 8443.
The only other solution is to open up port 443 on the firewall and, if you can only run Tomcat on 8443, then set up a firewall rule to translate 443 to 8443. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Forte, Graham" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Tomcat Users List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 7:21 PM Subject: https without specifying the port in address bar > Hello all, > I am trying to stand up a site and my company has all ports except > for 8443 blocked.
