Cannot connect to Internet
Hi all,
I am using RHEL 5.0 toa act as a firewall server. I can ping any sites but the problem is whenever i tried to use wget, for eg; wget http://64.124.52.228:80, then it says Connecting to 64.124.52.228:80... failed: Connection timed out. Retrying. --23:01:27-- (try: 2) http://64.124.52.228/ Connecting to 64.124.52.228:80... failed: Connection timed out. Retrying. --23:04:38-- (try: 3) http://64.124.52.228/ Connecting to 64.124.52.228:80... failed: Connection timed out. Retrying. --23:07:50-- (try: 4) http://64.124.52.228/ Connecting to 64.124.52.228:80... failed: Connection timed out. Retrying. --23:11:03-- (try: 5) http://64.124.52.228/ Connecting to 64.124.52.228:80... I am using the same server as a Proxy server too. It uses port number 3128. Is there anything to be done with the iptables ?? If this is because of port number then how can i change the default port number to 3128?? Please help me ..... Thanking you all in advance ....

Some site down allows to open website via a IP address. So use FQDN i.e. domain name such as google.com
Type following for proxy server Code:
export http_proxy=http://proxy_server:port/ export http_proxy=http://192.168.1.254:3128/ Code:
wget --proxy-user=USERNAME --proxy-password=PASSWORD http://google.com/

Re
Thanks for ur kind reply,
The actual problem is whenever i try to connect to internet, by default the machine tries to access net through port number 80. But in my other machine, i can connect to internet through port 80 which is in the same LAN. I think there is some problem with the default settings, i want to know where can i change it? Please help me out ...

Did you added above settings to /etc/profile? If you are using Firefox go to Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab > Network > Settings > Add proxy server ip and port > save the changes.
