I wish it was that easy... In fact that's where I started looking first
but guess what?? Those options do not even appear.. I even
went as far as upgrading to the latest version of Netscape and
still no options under Netscape to configure for a proxy server..
My Dist. of Linux "TurboLinux" came with Socks v5 but from
what I've read the Socks v4.3a server that MS Proxy runs will
not work with a v5 client, so I've been on this wild goose chase
looking for a client that will work with Our proxy..
Thanks
