RE: [newbie] Internet access through MS proxy server

[Jose M. Sanchez]

You haven't quite explained the setup...   Are you trying to use MS Proxy from Linux clients?   If so you have to remember that MS-PROXY uses NT authentication before enabling Windows machines. I.E. the Windows machines have to login to the NT domain/server before they have access to services.   This may be the problem.   -JMS   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jeremy Sudderth Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2000 4:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Internet access through MS proxy server Hello Everyone,   Here is a situation that I think you will all love.  My company is sick and tired of Windows.  They just hired me and after hearing that I said we should go to Linux ( Yipee!!!! ).  The problem is that they are not totally sure of me yet, which I can understand, so they want a couple of test machines to try it out on.  I have them all setup with samba working.  The problem is the Microsoft Proxy server 2.0 will not let them access the internet.  Any idea why.  They can ping the proxy server and even transfer files to it, but the socks service won't let them connect.   Thanks in advance,   Jeremy The IT man
