Also note that only one type of HTTP proxy is currently supported, the
one where you have a specific host name or IP address.  The other kind
has you access a file on your side of the firewall that contains the
address of the proxy.  If that's the kind your browser is set up to
use, you can usually get the address of the other kind by asking your
system administrator.
