I have an internal NT network with windows 2000 and NT machines. I have an NT 4 machine on which I have installed microsoft proxy.
This is my proxy server and it is connected to the internet through a DSL. The other machines are accessing the internet through the proxy. I have an application which telnets to a machine outside the network through the proxy. I have no problem telneting when I am at the proxy server. However, I cannot telnet while I am on other machines on the network. I would like to know how I can set up telnet so that I can telnet from other machines in the network.

You will need to install the Microsoft proxy client on any internal machine that you will want to telnet (or ftp) from. There should be a share on your Proxy machine that you can connect to and install the client. Do that and you will be all set.--Charlie
