Welcome to the Rice University Proxy Server home page.------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please Note: We are working hard to have a new proxy server available for you in August, 2009. The method of accessing information available through the proxy will be changing but overall, it should be much easier for you. Please stay tuned for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is a problem with Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher. If you are using Microsoft Windows, please check out this special note on how to fix it. With a properly-configured web browser, this proxy server allows Rice users to access many web-based electronic resources (such as online journals or databases) that are restricted to use from the Rice network. Unlike using the ethernet network on campus, dialing into the Rice modem pool, or using a VPN account, the proxy server can be used from any computer that has access to the Internet and a properly-configured web browser. No special software or prior setup is needed. Also, once your web browser is configured to use the proxy, you never have to visit this site again. Your web browser will automatically load any new proxy configuration files that we create when you start your web browser. When you try to access a site that is defined in the proxy configuration file, you will automatically be taken to the proxy login page. It's that simple. If you have questions or problems regarding the proxy server or information on these pages, please email problem@rice.edu for help. |
