        Hi squiders,

I'm running Squid 1.1.20 on proxy.swh.sk, port 3128.
My Netscape(Communicator 4.01) PAC (Proxy Auto-Config) doesn't work.
When trying http://www.eunet.sk/ , the i've got:
"Netscape is unable to locate the server www.eunet.sk.
 The server doesn't have a DNS entry"

I've configured my Netscape as:
Preferences/Advanced/Proxies/Automatic PC(URL): home.swh.sk/swh.pac

where home.swh.sk is running Apache/1.2.4:
srm.conf: AddType application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig pac
mime.types: application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig pac

swh.pac:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
        {
            if (url.substring(0, 5) == "http:") return "PROXY proxy.swh.sk:3128";
        }

Even using the script from Squid FAQ (written by Oskar Pearson), my
Netscape (browser) couldn't connect to the proxy.
Of course, my manual proxy configuration works fine.

Could someone tell me, where is the problem ?

Benarson.
