We are using the Netscape Enterprise Server.  We were quoted an educational
cost of $195.  Annual support is $399.  Although we could have used the
server without a license, we wanted the documentation and support.  We are
running it on a SUN UNIX box but I don't think platform matters.  It is a
nice product, fairly easy to set up and manage.

I don't know for sure about the Proxy Server although Netscape tends to
price everything the same for education.
