I was finally able to get netscape to work on my linux box behind the corporate firewall by setting the manual proxy to 10.xxx.xxx.xxx:80 for http and ftp (I actually gave the REAL address). I could not just give the URL address as the machine still doesn't seem to co-exist with the windows network nameserver even though the hard addresses of the name servers were entered into /etc/resolv.conf
Now how do I configure command line ftp to access via the firewall's port 80 as I have just done for Netscape-naviagator? (Once I can do that I can finally use apt-get directly on this machine, instead of downloading the packages one by one). ===== Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
