does anyone knows how to setup proxy ip from a windows server 2003 to slackware box... i have set it up... my slackware linux box detects the ip and all but... when i try to configure it to work with the proxy ip it doesnt work... i cant access the internet at all.. yet i can ping the server (windows server 2003)

running slackware 10.0
proxy server httpd

maybe someone can point me to the right direction, i would search google... but im kinda confused on what to search for, yet i am searching as i type. thanx

(oops wrong forum :S, should be in networking.. not wireless networking, please someone move it.. thanx )

Is the proxy on the windows box? What sort of proxy is it? Does it require authentication? What web browser are you using?
