This is totally my own fault; but I hope somebody
smarter can dig me out.
I installed FC-3 and carelessly configured the
IP address as dynamic. Everything worked fine, but
the network admin did *not* approve. I edited the
ifcg-eth0 files for a static IPaddr and everything works
fine EXCEPT the proxy no longer works. Initially,
I let the automatic probe set up the proxy and all was
well. With the static IPaddr it no longer works.
Reconfigure with proxy probe -
can't use proxy to get off site.
Putting the proxy in manually
same failure
Using the site-wide script
same failure (slightly different error message)
Same problem with both Firefox and Konqueror.
Other machines (RH7.3) continue to work.
TIA
Pat
