To Configure Netscape Navigator 4.x Not to Use Proxies

  1. Log in to the client as a user. Type:


    hostname console login: 
    username
    password: password
    

  2. Start the Navigator browser.

  3. For Navigator 4.x, perform the following steps:

    1. Choose Preferences from the Edit menu.

      The Netscape: Preferences window is displayed.

    2. Click on the triangle next to Advanced, and then click on Proxies.

      The Proxies window is displayed.

  4. If Manual proxy configuration has been selected, click on the View button. Otherwise, skip to Step 6.

    The Netscape: View Manual Proxy Configuration window opens.

  5. In the No Proxy for field, type the full hostname of the AnswerBook2 server and click OK.

  6. If Automatic proxy configuration has been selected (and you find that it takes a long time for the video file to start up), you should consult your system administrator for advice about switching to a Manual configuration.

  7. Click OK to complete the task.
