Java proxy settings

Question

I have global proxy settings made from Java control applet. It takes proxy settings from browser. I need to run a Java application that does not use global proxy settings, it has to use direct connection.

How can I do it with command line arguments?

Did you have a look here: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/net/proxies.html ?

You can set the system properties from the command line: java ... -Dhttp.proxyHost=your-proxy.example.com ...
