Hi,
I think while it is only proxy and not firewall, it's ok to send me also the
original address.
This a workaround of my problem:
I have a chat program which has two parts: client and daemon. Every user has
installed and is running daemon. When user logs in through the login page to
my system, I try to obtain his IP. This IP is then stored for later use.
That means, that another user is logged in, sees the names of other users
and by clicking on the name a chat client is run. This chat client uses the
that IP obtained while logging. However, this is the IP of proxy... Client
will never contact another users's chat daemon, so they are not able to
chat...
Is there any way to ask proxy for the original IP?
Thank you for help.

Hi,
Exactly as Andrius says the IP address behind the proxy is
irrelevant as those machines are inaccessible.
Also a Proxy should not expose the IP address of the machine
connected to the other side of it.
Thanks
