How do you configure Jetspeed to run behind a firewall/proxy? -or- What can cause the "java.net.UknownHostException" for www.mozilla.org, www.apacheweek.com or other external web sites?	If you have a proxy, set the servlet engine JVM system properties for using a proxy to: java -DproxySet=true -DproxyHost=<proxyHost> -DproxyPort=<proxyPort> <servlet engine> For Tomcat you can set TOMCAT_OPTS: Windows: set TOMCAT_OPTS=-DproxySet=true -DproxyHost=<proxyHost> -DproxyPort=<proxyPort> Unix: export TOMCAT_OPTS="-DproxySet=true -DproxyHost=<proxyHost> -DproxyPort=<proxyPort>"
OK, I think I configured Jetspeed to run behind a firewall/proxy but the URLs still are not being loaded.	Look in the file WEB-INF\conf\datasource.properties. If there is an entry for the URL in this file, remove it and try again.

Question	Answer
Which version of Jetspeed should I use ?	We do not recommend that you use the 1.1 or 1.2b1 releases as these are not supported anymore. You should use the latest 1.3 alpha release available which provides many improvements over the previous 1.2 or 1.1 releases.
I don't understand the release system, why is there no 1.2 release?	The Jetspeed development team has decided to skip the 1.2 release and start a new 1.3 'alpha' release branch for several reasons: The current development team judges the 1.1 and 1.2 beta numbers used for the previous releases misleading about the overall stability of the code and has reverted to an alpha status. the Jetspeed project is still very young and the API is very likely to change the stability of the code is not yet sufficient for production systems most of the Jetspeed code has been or is being reimplemented between 1.2b1 and the new 1.3 branch
