Mac Problem Solved!

If anyone out there has a brand new Mac OS X 10.5.2 and you live on campus you will probably have realised the drama involved in connecting it to the internet, it just doesn't happen! Well i have a solution <yaaaay> well technically I recieved this solution off the IT forum, but its a solution all the same :P

Firstly you must download the latest version of Authoxy
1. Go to the Apple menu, select System Prefs, and click the Authoxy icon
2. Make sure the Username is your CSU username. Re-enter your CSU password (even if you think it should have to correct one in there).
3. Make sure "Use this proxy server" is selected and the Address of the server is "proxy.csu.edu.au" and the port is 8080.
4. Click the top button labelled "Start Authoxy". If it says "Stop Authoxy" click it once so it says "Start Authoxy", and then click it again.

Worked for me :D thankyou wise forum people!
