It's not even that difficult. > Another solution is to run a Socks5 Server on the FreeBSD box and the SocksCap32 client on all thw WinX boxes. This way all the clients will appear to be the Socks5 Server hostname, and assuming you have an A record and PTR record for that servers hostname/ip address, all the WinX clients will get properly identified both through forward and reverse lookups. You can obtain the Socks5 source at http://www.socks.nec.com/ along with all documentation necessary to set it up.
