Re: OBTAINING EZ PROXY CONFIG FILES - info requested. Linda Wobbe 29 Mar 2010 17:43 UTC

Hi,

We are lucky to have a Systems Administrator from the IT
department (who works in our building!) who handles the
EZProxy server. Sometimes we learn about changes from
vendors, and we forward any of those messages to the
SysAdmin.  But, OCLC has good support documentation.

So, don't forget the EZ Proxy site at OCLC for identifying
the configurations.

OCLC also has a feed you can subscribe to for updates and
known issues:
