Re: Thanks - any more suggestions ?
I haven't tried telnetting but by export
http_proxy=http://proxy.vianet.net.au:80 I can reach the WWW through Lynx.
The error is generated fro FTP, http, gopher,etc...
I have tried entering the proxy details for all and for one at a time - the
error just will not go away !!!
As I have to disconnect/reconnect/disconnect/reconnect to test telnet and
report back, pls let me know if you think I should do this (I am mailing
from windoze !)
