4516.0. "NS 3 prob on NT Svr 4.0" by TRUCKS::BURY () Tue Mar 04 1997 09:28

	
	For some months I have been using Netscape 3 from the Admin acc on my
	NT Server 4.0 workstation. 

	However, logging in as 'John' (in administrators group
	with all user & file/directory permissions set)
	- I cannot reach ANY destination if proxies are set (internal or ext)
	- I CAN reach any internal page if proxies are not set

	If I log back in as administrator they all work.

	I tried reinstalling NS from the user account and no change...

Any suggestions...
John
PS	IE works just fine (but I prefer NS!)

    when setting proxies, you're not setting something in the SOCKS field,
    are you?  and you are putting ".dec.com" in the no-proxy field?
    
4516.2Yes! - but why???TRUCKS::BURYTue Mar 04 1997 11:5210
weeeird....

	yup - that works: removed the socks proxy entry (left 'no proxy for'
	as 'dec.com').

	what I still don't understand is why the SAME set-up (i.e. SOCKS
	proxy set) works when logged in as Administrator but not as a 
	normal user.

thanx
