--=====================_15591624==_.ALT Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed I live at a house with about 10 other people; we have an ISDN line and a proxy server for the household, Right now we use a program called "Wingate" which acts as a proxy server and a firewall. Under Win98 each of the client computers use a "wingate client" rather than the normal proxy settings. That means my FreeBSD computer as of right now can't connect to the internet (I dual boot W98 and FreeBSD). Does anyone know a way to get around this? Unfortuantely I can't make my computer as a server since I will move in about 9 months anyway, and it would be too much trouble to do all that. If anyone has used VMware (virtual machine-can emulate your computer on top of your OS so you can run multiple OS at the same time)? Do you think it would be possible to somehow install it and run W98 on top of it and run that proxy client program to be able to connect to the internet?
