New to Tru64 and need help with Netscape...

[Leeloo]

Hi there,
sorry to ask this question, but have no idea where to find help in the documentation...
I'm new to Tru64 so guess i was little optimistic to install Tru64 5.1 B on a ES40 i found for little money in the net and tried to use Netscape.
The ES40 is in an network with proxy, and as i can ping all TCP/IP adresses and www names i'm sure i have connection via the gateway and can reach DNS server.
When using Netscape it can't find a single page in the Internet so i guess the proxy port has to be configured.
But that's my problem - have no clue how to do that.
Again, i'm sorry for the question for i guess it's no real question for you Unix users...
and sorry for my engish, i'm native german

Invoke netscape, then go to Edit -> Preferences and the select the 'Advanced' option. There you will find the 'Proxies' sub-option. Hope you can find your way from there!

Also, as you seem new to this forum, I would suggest you check out http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/helptips.do?#28 to learn about the member point system.

Hi Venkatesh,

thank you for the reply.
That would have been easy, but in Netscape there is no Proxy Config field under preferences ( at least not in the Netscape for Tru64 installed :-( ).
Under the Netscape Help there is mentioned a proxy config file...
No idea where to look for it.

Is it? The netscape communicator version on my 5.1B box is 4.76...and I can see it (see the attached JPEG)

Same version, but no config screen...

Little strange ;-)

Thank you for your help
