The proxy use to be transparent and didn't require authentication, those requirements now changed, so it now utilizes a dedicated ip and basic authentication. This is fine for the machine it's on, but for machines behind it this presents a problem. They run freshclam for virus updating, csup or portsnap, fetch, and portupgrade and maybe others not sure if i remembered them all. Is there a simple way i can configure this box to deal with the new proxy? Thanks. Dave.
