[SunHELP] Netscape Comm. 4.76 on Sol 2.6

[sunhelp at sunhelp.org]

Hi Naresh,
In Netscape, you need to go to Edit =>Preferences=>Advanced=>Proxies
Click on "Manual Proxy =>View"  and set the hostname of the firewall and port
that you are allowed to run http thru.  That is usually port 80.

Now Netscape will be able to see the outside world.

Hi Admins,

     Netscape works but I cannot browse. I am inside a firewall and I can do a
nslookup on external sites and I am running NIS+ with nisd_resolv.

Thanks,
Naresh
