Route all traffic through an external anonymous proxy

Postby noxiousneo » Oct 29 04 4:35 am

Hi,

Is it possible to route all traffic on our LAN through an external anonymous proxy? If this was possible, would this mask our Ip address? I say this because many of the wingate client pcs use file sharing programs (not sharing content), and I'd feel a lot safer if our Ip address was masked.

Thank you for your time,

Hi

Most proxies in WinGate allow you to pass through an upstream proxy.

However for some application, such as file sharing, unless they support SOCKS, or similar protocol, then I don't think they would work through a proxy (as opposed to network address translation) anyway.
