Proxy servers

Access to the World Wide Web may be restricted (by a firewall or maybe just site policy), so that it is only available through a ``web cache'' or proxy server. If you are in this situation you'll need to configure GAIA so that its remote catalogue access will work.

To do this, start up GAIA, select the Data-Servers menu and choose any remote catalogue. Now in the catalogue window select the Options menu and choose the Proxies... item.

Now fill in the two fields (consult your system administrator if you're unclear what to enter here) and press OK.
