The easiest way to do this is by using NAT. On the Squid server, set up as many private IP addresses as you have client stations. Then assign each client to one of these private IP addresses via tcp_outgoing_address. Before the traffic reaches the Internet, NAT these private IP addresses back to their corresponding client IP addresses. Use of a Port-NAT capable NAT gateway is required to allow for bot natted and unnatted connections on the same IP. Note: If your Squid is running on the gateway then it may be possible to run this NAT there as well. -- Donations welcome if you consider my Free Squid support helpful. https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=hno%40squid-cache.org If you need commercial Squid support or cost effective Squid or firewall appliances please refer to MARA Systems AB, Sweden http://www.marasystems.com/, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
