Yes and no. a) Yahoo can select to trust the information provided by the proxy about who the original client are. b) In theory it may be possible to teach the Squid server to spoof the client IP address when making the outgoing connections, but this buts very specific requirements on the design of your network (the Squid server must be the ONLY AND SINGLE gateway whereby all Internet traffic is sent) and requires a great deal of patching both to Squid and the underlying operating system (support is limited to Linux). Also, attempting 'b' is a gross violation to the TCP/IP specifications, much worse than transparent proxying. Regards Henrik
