Can you please verify this?

I hit "right-button, properties" on "network neighborhood", which
brought up "Network", a tabbed dialog box.

The only relevant tab was "Configuration".

There were no settings like you describe under either "Client for
Microsoft Networks, Properties" or "TCP/IP, Properties" tabbed
dialogs -- the native TCP/IP configuration dialogs.

I then went to "Start, Settings, Control Panel".  "Network" brings
up the properties tabbed dialog box.

In "Start, Settings, Control Panel, Internet" (which only appears
if you install the "Plus!" pack), the "Advanced" tab describes
proxy services.

I thought this was for the announced NT proxy server?

If this is in fact for socks, this would be seriously important
to know.
