Hi,
Sounds very much like a proxy server using Windows NTLM auth. I
suggest you find a copy of the python proxy on the net ( called
aps098 ) and configure it to suit. This is what I use to navigate out
of my windows-centric company. Firefox & IE probably use their own
proxy settings whereas Safari uses the System Preferences
I haven't resolved the pop email question, I use webmail from my ISP
to read my personal email if I have to. I figure you'd need to
configure Entourage and have your mail admin allow smtp from your Mac
to have mail in & out working (and that's a bad thing from network
admins security point of view)

Hello to all from Jakarta,
I've been reading this list for a few month now, and would like to
ask your
help for the following.
I have the only Mac (iBook G4, 1.33 Ghz, 768 RAM, OSX 10.3.9) recently
admitted to my workplace's Windows network, only for internet
access. On
inserting the ethernet cable, Network status shows that I am
connected to
the internet. But when I start up Safari (1.3) I get no connection
(even
though configured for the webproxy server settings my admin gave me).
Whereas Internet Explorer and Firefox do connect.
I also would like to access my pop.account with a local ISP, but I
have no
success with Mail (1.3.11), nor with Thunderbird (1.0.6) or with
Entourage
2004.
All programs function well when connecting via ISP dial-up.
I would like to keep using Safari and Mail from my office network.
Is there
something I should do on my system, or is there anything I can tell my
network administrator who has no experience wth Macs?
Gratefull for your assistance
Toga
