I have just set up my first Linux box, and have fallen in love with this OS.
I am running two NT 5.0 and two Win 98 workstations, one NT 5.0 server and
(all beta testing)they all connect to my ISP through  a PDC NT 4.0 server,
with Internet Information , and Proxy Server.
My  question seems to have been answered by Noel, however as I have just
started with Linux, the configuration will take me some time to set up the
Linux box as a proxy.
As I already am running a proxy server:
(a) Is there a configuration that will allow me to set up the Linux box as
a Proxy client ?.

(b) Can I configure the present browser that is used to run the online How
To files as a proxy seek browser and not a dial-up ?

I will be scouting the Linux pages mentioned, and if I find anything that
addresses to this subject I will pass it on.

Louis.
The lewbie.
