I installed ML 8.1 on my desktop at my college office (dual boot with W2K).
I automatically got onto the network using DHCP, but can only browse pages
within the college network--and I can read my e-mail.

I asked my SysAd for help, but he, being a backward fellow, was furious that
I had installed Linux on my desktop (I guess he thinks I am going to use it
to set up my own server or something) and refuses to help me.

My W2K goes onto the WWW using "automatic detection", along with a script
that goes:

http://proxy/script/proxy.pac

I tried to plug this script into a few different places in the Mandrake
Network settings, but to no avail.

Is it possible that the problem is something that I have missed within the
Mandrake configuration, or will I just have to go over my Sysad's head and
force him to give me the settings I need?

Regards,

Chuck
