I'm fairly new to Linux and very green with DSL but I like it a lot; I've installed it on an old PC at work and have edited the .Dillo config file to use the correct proxy but I am getting HTTP 407 errors which I believe are related to not be authenticated as a user of the proxy or something..?

Any ideas or do I have to go through my IT dept?!?!? Rather not.

Also how can I log in with root access?

have you tried:

Code Sample

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# NETWORK SECTION
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Set the home location
home=file:/usr/share/doc/dsl/getting_started.html

# Set the proxy information for http
http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port/

take note of the last line in this example
