Re: [squid-users] users proxy IP

Not really. To make the connections look like they come from the
client's IP, the proxy must spoof the client IP. This is not something
which can be easily done and requires changes to both Squid and the host
where Squid runs, and even then is only possible in very specific
network configurations.

What Squid does it to send the clients IP in the added request header
X-Forwarded-For. Servers who are interested in knowing who the client
behind the proxy is may use this header.
