So if I wanted to protect a site on server C to only allow access to certain
IP's (say including A's IP).
If A connects to B then has B make the requests, there is no way for C to
receive any information about A's IP?
Therefore the client may be denied from being access the site... correct?

What would be the best way to work around this?
Can B be formatted so its IP is dynamically reassigned to A's when
requesting to that specific page?

Thanks again!

Ask someone on B to report what IP address the SSH connection from A
originated from.

This is the nature of tunneling to a remote system.
