Overriding HostnameVerifier

Is there a way via a system property or other mechanism to specify a different HostnameVerifier? I am using a system that I do not have source code to that is failing and I need to allow all host connections.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!

No you don't, you need to allow exactly and only the ones you need to allow. Otherwise you are introducing a MAJOR SECURITY BREACH.
