ProxyServer: how to ping,nslookup,wget,curl etc from client PC

~=gr3p=~ · 06-08-2005, 05:11 AM

If I access the internet from client machine through proxy server by entering all that proxy settings in my browser then how the heck will i use tools like wget if i want to download a website or network commands like ping,nslookup,traceroute from the terminal

Is there a solution for this?
