Don't you need to configure your firewall? Find the ports daoc is using and maybe the IP of the server.

I don't know for sure, but if that's wrong someone's bound to flame me and give the right answer :p

If the proxy allows DAoC traffic through (which it probably won't, but . . .), then you should be able to access it by adding a route for the DAoC servers from a command prompt. This will mean that non internet traffic from your PC will also use the proxy to get to that address.

The command is :

route add -p [SERVER IP ADDRESS] mask 255.255.255.255 [PROXY IP ADDRESS]

Add this for the logon and game server(s) and you should be fine, if the proxy allows the traffic. If it doesn't, you'll have to ask someone who controls the proxy to open up certain ports. However, there may also be software that'll change the ports to open ones to get through the proxy, then change them back again outside your firewall. Never used such a thing, though, so can't really recommend any.

From a command prompt. Type cmd into the Start -> Run box (on Windows 2000/XP) or command into the Start -> Run box (on Windows 95).
