It has been a long time since I have worked with MS Proxy Server 2.0. By default it does want to use NTLM to authenticate you, but I also believe you can allow it to use Basic authentication which would allow Mozilla, Netscape, etc to work with the Proxy Server. I think to change this on the Proxy Server you have to make the configuration change under the default web site in IIS and check off Basic as an authentication type. > There's no way the original poster can use an MS proxy server on Linux? The above steps should allow a non-MS web browser to work through the MS Proxy Server. One thing to keep in mind though is that other non-web based services need the MS Proxy client to be able to use the Proxy service for access to the Internet. (this includes telnet, ssh, smtp, etc.). There is not a Proxy Client for non-MS machines. If the original poster must use an MS product then one could upgrade to MS ISA Server which allows clients on the local LAN to become NAT clients bypassing the need for a Proxy client. I myself would replace the MS Proxy server with a Red Hat box with IP Masquerading and Squid. In the end it allows a much more tuneable config.
