about? If these servers exist: do they all operate on the premise of spoofing the source address as coming from the client, or would I actually see the cacheing servers source address? At this point, the only evident proxies in a server netstat are from AOL, but this is nothing new. The real increase in unexplained stale sockets are from random source addresses (spoofed?). Again, this mail is solely for the purpose of troubleshooting an exasperating, unexplained problem, not a blame the cache mail, so no return spam please. Any thoughts or recent similar experience sharing would be greatly appreciated.
The only proxie /web cache on the market that could have spoofed the source address was vixie's and it is not in any backbone scenarios to the best of my knowledge - plus it wouldn't have caused a problem - you would have never known it was there in your instance. -- I am nothing if not net-Q! - ras@poppa.clubrich.tiac.net
