hi,
Anyone plz help.I have redhat 6.1 internet client of winnt proxy using dailup connection.M/c is dailing and logging to winnt server porperly.Proxy requires authentication for each browser.After that if u open browser it does not show any site.It ping properly to proxy server.Same setting is working properly in win98 on same m/c.It is using port 80.If put ip address
of proxy server it is connecting there and asking for authentication.But for other sites it is not working.I think problemis that name to ip address resolution is not happenning.
Any one who knows about configuring linux as proxy client plz give details of configuration.
thanks.

Sounds like your problem is winnt proxy server.
You may need to setup DNS on proxy server. That should fix your client problem. Or if you tell your client to set DNS configuration on the client machine, that will be short term solution.

hi
i guess that you have not changed the nt authentication.try this out
go to internet service manager.right click the www services you will get www services properties for proxy server. in password authentication tab select only "Allow annonymous" and deselect others.

as told that this configuration is working fine in win98 and win98 is not member of nt domain. Thanks for comments
