You are right, thanks for the tip! Did not know that there is a proxy
program for the amiga so you can make your own local proxy server.

Now my problem: I have started httpproxy with the following options after
the startnet script has run:

run amitcp:bin/httpproxy cache eh0:tmp del 5184000 expire 604800 log eh0:uue/Spool/httpproxy.log get unread

In AWeb I have configured the proxy to:

http://localhost/8080

When I try to select a page, I get "Cannot connect to localhost".
I have tried like in mentioned in the Guide to ping localhost (works
fine) and to letnet to httpproxy (works fine as well). Also the
inet.access file has
*      *.*.*.*     allow    LOG

set (which is correctly shown in the log when I letnet to httpproxy),
so it should work. I'm connectet to the Internet using slirp btw.
(So far no problems with that, AWeb, ncftp, telnet etc. all worked fine)

Hope someone can help me here.
