Using 4.5Rel The proxy server at my work is an MS Proxy using ntlm authentication. I set up NTLM Authorization Proxy Server 0.97 (http://www.geocities.com/rozmanov/ntlm/) in order to be able to use alternative soft and ideally to allow my freebsd machine to pass through the ms proxy. The local ntlm proxy on the FreeBSD server works fine, and I can use it as a proxy for NT machines: NT --> FreeBSD + NLTM proxy --> MS Proxy --> outside world BTW the NTLM proxy doesn't require any authentication on the end users side. Now I'd like to get the FreeBSD box to use the proxy as well. What obvious place to test is was through sysinstall's area for grabbing packages, given that it incorporates proxy support. I chose the option to install through an http proxy and specify the NTLM proxy address and port (5865). The client connects: "Located INDEX, now reading package data from it" but then it seg faults. I'm not sure if the problem is FreeBSD related or specific to the NTLM proxy. What I'd like to do now is set up the FreeBSD to use the proxy for all its connections. I'm not sure of how to do this, because most docs refer to using FreeBSD as a proxy for other machines, but not using it as a proxy for itself. Or really, just how to have it use a proxy. Would it be a nat issue? Could someone point me in the direction of some docs. thanks, Sn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
