Linux Proxy Server
Hello,
I have about 70 computers running Win9x and IE 4.0. I want to setup a proxy server but I don't want to spend any money. I have a machine and RedHat Linux (Kernal 2.2.2). Now all I need is a free, really good, easy to setup and maintain proxy server application that runs on linux. Yes I know it sounds like a lot but I keep hearing how much better linux is compared to Windows. Except for the money part Microsoft Proxy meets all my requirements. I found one proxy application for linux but it required that everyone run netscape, I have no idea why? Just to make things clear if I have to do more than just add the ip address of the linux box on my client machines I will not accept the answer. I don't have time to go screwing around with 70 machines that work just fine as is. I'm new to linux, I have only used it as a client machine and a simple web server so please don't use big words.
Thanks,
Joe
