| 1. The SOCKS proxy support in Java 1.4 had certain limitations. Due to these limitations, |
| the setting of the SOCKS system properties is not performed when a 1.4 VM is used. The SOCKS proxy |
| may still be used by some tooling when running on a 1.4 VM (e.g. CVS). However, users should use a 1.5 (or 5.0) |
| VM if they require full SOCKS proxy support. |
