Access through microsoft Proxy Server

[ayjaycee]

Our site accesses the Net via M$ Proxy Server.

Anyone know how to get through it from unix?

I don't mean from a browser, I want to be able (for example) to ping a

http://WWW address

from the command line. I'm sure there's a way to do ping proxy_address something WWW_address so that the ping request goes to the proxy, which forwards it on.

One by one, the penguins steal my sanity.

If your gateway on the unix box is configured to go to the MS proxy server, you should have no problems getting out as long as you are able to reslove DNS on your unix box.
