Both the normal proxy server at http.rahul.net and the ad-blocking proxy
server at noads.rahul.net will now allow NW56 users to connect after
authenticating themselves. A section has been added to the
NW56-specific web page that documents this. We also have a special
login name designated for this:
username: a2iproxy
password: a2iproxy
The password will occasionally be changed and will be announced in the
a2i.info newsgroup only (not in a2i.announce). The use of the
proxy-specific username and password is recommended, as it avoids your
normal login name and password being sent with each URL that your web
browser requests from the proxy.
