Re: [newbie] how to connect thru proxy

[Civileme]

ACK, is that an ethernet to a DSL modem?  If so, has the modem been set up?  Ciscos I know need to be given an IP (in routing mode) or to be set up specifically for bridging mode.  And many folks do provide a short length of crossover cable (RJ-45 connectors) to link a single ethernet connector to the DSL modem.

You might be wanting to make the DSL your gateway?  I do not really understand exactly what you are trying to do....  In other words, what you have described has created a fog for me on your network topology.  What is the rest of the network like and where do those connections go?  Is the DSL attached to a hub?  Has it been set up?

Two different connectors one for t-base other for DSL
I do have both working now, however I can only ping to the server, not
going out to the intranet or proxy
it will ping to either a ip or host name or localhost, but no futher.

Hmmm,  I do bel.ieve eth0 needs to be activated, even if not connected

Is there some reason that eth0 is hanging?  Why not use eth0 to connect to
the proxy and eth1 to connect to whatever you will have in the future?  Move
the wire and change eth1 to eth0 in each of the panels.
