I have an application that must run in windows which must post to a servlet=
 running on a secure server. I can WinSCP into that server, and I can use P=
uTTY to ssh into that server. But I am quite clueless how I can post to a s=
ervlet there? Is there something I can pass in posting, or something I do w=
ith my URLConnection or URL variable to allow me access as I get with WinSC=
P or PuTTY? Thank you.

URL postURL =3D new URL(servletURL);
HttpURLConnection conn =3D (HttpURLConnection) postURL.openConnection();
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setUseCaches(false);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"=
);=20
conn.connect();
StringBuilder sb =3D new StringBuilder();				=09
sb.append(vtkey+"=3D"+ paramval);		=09
out.write(sb.toString());
out.flush();
