Hi all,
my isp is using a proxy server, but they only guide how to set up proxy 
for IE, Netscape to access internet. That means when I try 'ping -c1 
www.yahoo.com.au' on my linux (without X), it s failed.
my question is:
where could I write http,ssl,ftp...proxy (www.ispserver.com:8080) in 
linux so I can make a transfer between internet and my box?

one more question is:
my slackBox worked as a router well with previous dialup account in 
which has used "direct to connect internet" option (firewall instead of 
proxy). However, it can not route ipPackets to XP clients with new ISP 
using ProxyServer. Do I need to change anything in pppd options and/or 
iptables or dhcpd.conf if ISP server using a proxy server?

any help would be much appreciated,
regards
d.phan
my system:

slack[192.168.10.1]
	|
	|DHCPD
	|
firewall (enable forwarding IP)
	|
	|
	XP(s)
