Using multiple Ips with windows.. Will pay $$
 

My problem:

I currently have my Windows 2003 server setup with three different IP addresses. Let's call them A, B, and C. I have a proxy server which I can setup to listen to all three IP addresses, but it will only sent data out on IP A. Even if a client connects on IP C or B, it will still be sent through A. How can I setup a proxy daemon which will listen to A, B, and C and send data from the address which the client connected to?

I found someone with the same problem and he solved it by using a bouncer..

Can anyone here help me out with this problem.. Ill pay $$$$

Thanks

Can you get Squid for Windows? It may be possible to run 3 instances, each with their own tcp_incoming_address and tcp_outgoing_address configured to the appropriate IP. Clunky, but it will work.

This is a common issue for any "multihomed" host BTW... outbound connects will usually use one default IP, unless the application is designed to deal with this and requests a specific IP for the outbound connect.

the post above was an example.. my actual server has 40 ips.. will be messy with squid?

If you cant find anything else, you can always use Microsoft ISA Server/Forfront. Depends on what licens you have

i dont want to run 40 instances of squid..

hit me up on aim or icq info in sig

hit me up .. on icq 120671981. i'll tell you how to do it, its so simple dont even worry about paying me anything

Squid can do it, you just need to bind all 40 of your IPs to respond and reply on the ips requested instead of just the default server ip.

and squid has an option for this?

Yeah, I can't remember the settings off hand but there's a setting for responding and a different setting for replying. I'll try to find it when i'm at the office tomorrow.

I don't think that will do what the OP wants, since it will still use a single outgoing IP. He wants the outgoing to match whatever incoming has been connected to. That's why I suggested multiple instances of Squid.
