Instead of writing your own proxy MTS, we can use web
server as proxy for your MTS ( over HTTP/HTTPS ). I
have an idea how to do that...but I am not sure
whether that's 100%.

When a client is ready to contact the server, it
establishes the HTTP connection to the server. Through
the post method it posts whatever data is required for
server side processing and it waits for the input.
Once it gets the result back, it can use that result
to further processing/rendering. If you are sending
Java serialized objects from the client ( applet )
then the we should use mime type as "application/..."
or whichever suits. On the server side ( Web server )
we'll have a servlet which gets the parameters in the
post request and contact the MTS.

if you have any queries or if you get a better one
than this please do mail me...
