Web Proxy Server Enhanced

By Joel Jaeggli (joelja@darkwing.uoregon.edu)

The campus web proxy server, proxy.uoregon.edu, has been beefed up for fall term.

The proxy server can now store more than 3000MB of remote web pages, vastly increasing performance. With more RAM and a larger cache, it can serve pages faster than ever before.

After a web page is first viewed, you don't have to wait for it to load from a very remote or slow web server. Instead, web sites that have already been visited will load quickly from our local server.

To use the proxy server...

Set the proxy in your web browser to point t

Address: proxy.uoregon.edu

Port: 3128
