How to access proxy server from cmd

I am behind a proxy at work that asks for a username and password when I initially try to access the internet. It's no big deal and a window just pops up for me to put the info in. However, if I try to ping a site from a command prompt I get "ping request could not find host www.yahoo.com. Please check the name and try again." I know this is because I wasn't able to input my username and pw before pinging.

My question is how do I input that username and pw stuff from the command prompt?

Thanks!
