If I am posting from a servlet on my domain to a different domain's Servlet; what is the method that needs to be used.
Is it response.redirect or forward that needs tobe used.

You may use a java.net.HttpURLConnection to do the Post....

There should be other easier way to do this.
HppUrlConnection is not very reliable(it can lock ur threads and need extra programming to take care of releasing the threads) and is bi-directional, which is not necessary in cases.

In what sense is not reliable ??? I dont understand about the threads that you are talking about...locking and releasing ???
I dont think there is another way to do a post from one servlet to another....

What i mean is, there is no effective timeout mechanism when u are using Httpurlconnection. It will holdup ur process that is trying to use it(that is what I meant by thread).

that's not a problem in the HttpUrlConnection but rather in the way you use it.
