It can be, yes...  I have direct Internet access on my Amiga, but
sometimes I use a proxy at the Imperial College, London because they
have a better link to some places.

But I could also run a proxy server on my Amiga presumably - so if I
had a second machine connected to my Amiga but not the Internet, it
could access the WWW.

Cheers,

Lars.
