Ok setting up a proxy server, is not that difficult, especially if you use the package I used, it is pretty easy to use, and the nice thing is you can downlaad a complete version version for evaluation. They have also very good documentation online.

It helped me extremely well the first time I had to setup a proxy server.

O.k.. What u need is MS-PRoxy Server 2.0 CD..
Here are the steps to do that...
Install service pack 3 or greater on nt server 4.0...
\Before installing Proxy server ensure that u have TCP/IP and lan drivers properly setup on your machine... It will be better if u keep the ip address of your lan as 192.168.0.0 as this is assigned for private use, even though any ip address will work unless u dont require a presence on the internet.....
Install MS-Proxy server from the CD ...
In the dialog box that asks u to enter the range of ip addresses of your lan...either enter the range for e.g; 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.25 (since u just want to have 18 computers connected) ... or click on construct ip table ...
After installation is over.. go to each cliet computer and enter the proxy servers ip address as the gateway address in its TCP/IP dialog box... Then click on the internet options in Control panel and click on connection tab.. Check on use a proxy server check box and enter the ip address of the proxy server with the default port 80 as it is...
Do this for all the computers and enjoy the net...
