I tend to spend 95% of my time at 2 different sites, both firewalled, and
the only http/ftp access is through their proxies. I can set my dns
correctly and do an "nslookup proxy" just fine. I'd like to set netscape
to use the hostname "proxy" instead of a FQD for both domains so I don't
have to change my proxy settings every time I change locations (I'm at each
site daily).
However, when I set the hostname to proxy and hit OK, I get:
XXXX proxy host "proxy" is unknown.
and I have to set a domainname. Anyone have any thoughts to get around
this? I normally suspend the laptop, move to the new location and resume
the laptop. I have a script that reconfigures the network for the new
location. I'd rather not start/stop netscape or change settings every
time.
Thoughts?
