Hi
I have my proxy set up for port 8080 and 3128.
I used most of the defaults and it is successfully transmitting webpages.
However, when I go to: http://www.hideyouripaddress.net/what_is_my_ip/
it shows the server IP.
However, it is passing on the fact that it is a proxy and that my real IP address is:
YOUR Proxy
Proxy Type: Transparent, Real IP: 86.xxx.xxx.xx
Any ideas why this is and what to check in the config?
Thanks

I think you're having the same problem I was having. Try adding "forwarded_for off" to your squid.conf. This turns off a special http header that tells the world that your squid box is a proxy and is handling requests for other machines.
