Hi all.  Could someone point me to the right documentation that would 
help me with a proxy question?  My problem is that our ISP has set up an 
interlock that does the proxying, but the rest of our network is NIS, and 
does not interact with the NIS passwd databases.  I think it is that I 
need a basic understanding of proxy and what function cern's httpd with 
proxy capability gives me..  Hope this makes sense.

One other thing.. Can someone explain to me the difference between UDP 
broadcast and unicast?

Thanks,
Dave Wreski
