On my home network I have a satellite internet gateway on a W2K PC running WinRoutePro as a Proxy Server at 192.168.0.1:3128 and DNS Server at 192.168.0.1.
On my RedHat 7.3 PC I have setup Netscape to use the Proxy Server and it works properly.
I have set the following additional settings which allow Lynx to work.
File /etc/resolv.conf
----------------
nameserver 192.168.0.1
File /etc/profile
-----------------
export http_proxy=
I can't get other applications such as telnet or ping to work.
If I enter ping I get:
ping (201.171.186.16) from 192.168.0.210 : 56(84) bytes of data
From 192.168.0.210 : Destination Host Unreachable
which show that DNS resolution is working
If I ping by IP, I also get Destination Host Unreachable.
If I telnet by name (I get DNS resolution) or IP I get : "Unable to connect to remote host : No route to host".
What am I missing? Is there some other settings that I haven't seen in any of the posts here that will allow general use of my Proxy Server from linux?
Thanks.
