Proxy server in Apache
mod_proxy is used to set as forwarding proxy server. IE user works fine.
However, for Netscape browser user, if using "Automatic proxy
configuration" and put the proxy server in the field of "Configuration
location (URL)", Netscape browser will show error:
"The proxy automatic configuration file is not of the correct type:
http://proxy_server_host_name
Expected the MIME type of application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig.
No proxies will be used."
I did put application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig into mime.type file.
What should I do?
Thank you,
Zuwei

Originally, we used Netscape Proxy Server 3.52. Now I put its proxy.pac
file as Apache proxy server home page. It works fine. Do you know where I
can find documantation about PAC file?
Thank you very much,

did you create on the server a PAC (proxy automatic configuration file) -
and in which directory? Have you ever seen a PAC file (javascript) ?
Why don't you simply set manually for the clients the ip-address and port?
