You probably are :) Perforce doesn't use a HTTP protocol so the proxy
probably won't work.
Any chance that you could ssh to another machine that has access?
Something like:
ssh -L 1666:p4.lpi.org:1666 otherhost
would work. Then you just set the P4PORT (or equiv in the GUIs) to
localhost:1666.
Otherwise, you can just work without talking to Perforce and 'catch up'
later. Instead of writing out the gory details, read this tech note on
working remotely:
