I recently had internet service enabled in my dorm and was given instructions on how to configure my web browser to connect via the internet via a proxy server for Windows XP. I was able to successfully set up the internet connection for a the Windows side of my dual boot Windows XP/FREEBSD laptop. Unfortunately I haven't been as successful on the FreeBSD side of my laptop. I have tried setting mozilla to make use of the same proxy settings as I used for IE on my windows XP but I am repeatedly told that mozilla can not find the proxy server. I am not sure if there is anything else that needs to be configured to allow me to connect to the intenet via this proxy server in FreeBSD. Can anyone give a hand. I am currently running FreeBSD 5.3 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
