News bulletin #126
22-October-1998
Today's topics:
- PAC files for libraries and general WEB access.
- IMSL software.
- A letter from the security department about parking arrangements.
o PAC files: A centrally managed proxy automatic configuration file (PAC)
has been deployed by the Edmond J. Safra branch of HUCA. It is strongly
suggested that all Netscape users define pac.huji.ac.il/proxy.pac as
their Automatic Proxy Configuration option. For full details, see
http://pac.huji.ac.il.
As noted in a previous news bulletin, library archive access via the
Internet will be denied to browsers which do not use a proxy server in
the huji domain. Defining proxy.pac as above will assure the users
that their proxy definitions will always be up to date.
Note for BC users who authenticate to the proxy with password: You
should not use this PAC file as you'll be connected to the standard
proxy. All other BC users are detected by this PAC file and directed
to the relevant proxy machine.
o IMSL users - please send a note to marian@cc.huji.ac.il stating that
you are an IMSL user.
o Parking arrangements: The following bulletin has been written by the
security department and is passed to you as-is.
