Hi,
I've just succeeded installing woody on my new Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop (it took me 4 days!!! because i've just switched to debian). I often bring my laptop to work in the library, but i don't know how to make debian connect to the Internet through a proxy (although i have username and password for the proxy).
Any suggestion would be appreciated,
Jim
