R: lynx-dev Lynx on OS/390 2.5

[Perelli Marco (SSI RM)]

I suppose that the problem is passing user and password to proxy in an
uncorrect format. How can I control the conversion from EBCDIC (IBM-1047) to
ASCII (or viceversa)?

P.S.
I verified that the proxy address is correctly specified... 

Thank's in advance
best regards

Marco wrote first to me personally because I'm listed as the
OS/390 contact; I bounced him here because this didn't appear
390-specific.  Looking more carefully, I see:

    Looking up proxy_ssi.rm.ssi.enel:8080

but in his signature:

                  address@hidden

Is it possible that the ".it" qualifier is required in
the proxy definition?  The proxy definition isn't in
his lynx.cfg; it must be coming from the environment.
