I know this can be done, because at work I went to www.whatismyip.com and it came up with MY machines IP address, and I did confirm that it was my machines ip address at the time. and then I tried it again a few weeks later, and all of a sudden after asking the technicians of why this was happening, the site then showed the INTERNAL IP address of the squid machine. So I am curious to how to set this up please.
