Just thinking out loud, so no flames please.... So the situation is that you have a point of presence on the net that needs to be concealed but still access the net. The idea is to route all the traffic from that point to another point and then to the net in a manner that would mask the traffic. Ok, how about this: firewall the first point so that _no_ traffic can get out. Then set up a VPN between the first point and the second with _all_ traffic routed through the tunnel. Then route all traffic from the 1st point out to the net. Now there will be traceable traffice between both points, but it will _all_ be encripted and only be traceable to the second point. As far as routing is concerned, the IP address of the 1st point (through the VPN) would be a private address and look like another network at the 2nd point.
