This is why I question yourunderstanding of how a proxy server does its job.1- Do you understand that a proxy server knows the browser's realip address, but most are configured to NOT pass this info on tothe web server?2- Do you understand that WebDNA can communicate only with the webserver, and never with the web browser or the proxy server (bothof which actually know the web browser's real ip address)?3- Do you understand that WebDNA cannot get the real ip addressfrom the web server because the web server does not have it?If you understand all this, it would seem to make sense thatWebDNA cannot report the web browser's real ip address when aproxy server is involved.Regards,Kenneth GromeWebDNA Solutionshttp://www.webdnasolutions.comWeb Database Systems and Linux Server Administration---------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed tothe mailing list
