IBM JSSE problem in WebSphere

[ningjun wang]

We encounter IBM JSSE problem in WebSphere 4.0.5 on Solaris 8. The
following simple JSP generate an error:

<%@ page import="java.io.*, java.net.*, javax.net.*, javax.net.ssl.*"
%>

<%
Socket sock = new Socket("certlexisgw.lexis-nexis.com", 443);
SSLSocketFactory sslFactory =
(SSLSocketFactory)SSLSocketFactory.getDefault();
sock = sslFactory.createSocket(sock, "certlexisgw.lexis-nexis.com ",
443, true);
sock.getInputStream(); // This line throw the exception
%>
Done

This JSP throw the following exception at the last line
sock.getInputStream();
