Hi People 
    Could someone generally point out how proxy authentication takes 
place in a Linux workstation connected to a network and the proxy squid
etc on a different machine. 
    Anyway Netscape in Linux allows proxy authentication.
    Is the windows machine NT or Win 95 this question may be naive, I 
believe proxies are available for win95 also. But these win 95 proxies 
could be working only if you connect through windows( Knowing windows ;-) )

regards
Aditya
