Hi guys! I have been searching high and low for the answer but no such luck.....I am attempting to connect by Debian GNU/Linux box to the Net through a Microsoft Proxy Server 2.0. I can ping outside the local network but whenever I use dselect, I get an error message. I understand that if the socks is enabled on the M$ Proxy Server, I can use the socks4/5 client to sockify the programs which need to connect to the Net, but I think the proxy server socks is not enabled. Also, I have seen numerous postings regarding the use of some M$ proprietary "protocol" which allows M$ Internet Explorer (and not other Web Browsers such as Netscape and Opera) to connect to the Net. I tried using Lynx in Debian and this is the error messages I get:
HTTP Error 401 401.2 Unauthorised Logon failed due to server configuration. This error indicates that the credentials passed to the server do not match the credentials required to logon to the server. This is usually caused by not sendoing the proper WWW - Authenticate header field. Please contact the Web server's admin to verify that you have permission to access the requested resource. In M$ Windows 95b(on the same box using XOSL), I can connect using only M$ Internet Explorer! Can anyone enlightenment me? Is there a space on the Net where I can find the answers to this question? Thx. P/S I am certain my settings on the Debian box is correct!
