greetings,


we occasionally get the following errors from our netscape v 3.0 browser:

"The requested item could not be loaded by the proxy.

A ntework error occurred: unable to connect ot server (TCP Error:32) The server may be
down or unreachable.  Try connecting again later.

Proxy server at hostname.xxx.com on port 8080."

hostname.xxx.com is our webserver which is inside the firewall.  in the fireall messages i
get a security alert on unserved port 8080.  i am running gauntlet 3.1 on a sparc20
SunOS 4.1.4 and have http configed by the boot.  i have http pointing to port 80, which is the 
default. we actually are proxying http through the internal web machine.  i have no idea what is 
going on here.  any help on this one would be apprieciated.

thanks,


von prahl
