Cognos SDK with Custom java security provider - issue

I am working on an SDK which logs in to cognos 8 through the dispatcher url and retrives all the report details. I am able to run it in the offshore environment without any issues. But not in my onsite environment. The security provider is a custom java security provider in the onsite env and when i run the code with any userid which is mapped to this security provider the code doesnt work and through anonymous user the sdk code does the work very well. But it doesnt bring the reports under the other users 'my folders' as the anonymous user doesnt have sys.admin previllage. I tried to add the anony. user to the sys.administrator group after doing this the code doesnt work.

So its clear that only for a normal anonymous user the code works and if the user id goes through the custom java security provider the code connects to the server but doesnt fetch any output from the server. I am getting a ioException: Stream closed error.

Can any one suggest what might be the issue and what needs to be done. A fast reply will be really helpful for me.
