Dansguardian & Client IP question

Hi All,

I have configured Dansguardian for Squid in Red Hat 9. Its working well. It is configured for port 3128 and Squid is configured for port 2831.

I have one question with the way Dansguardian forwards requests to Squid, since it sits between client and squid server, it sends the IP of the server itself to squid.

In other words if i access the log file of squid in realtime i can see that it appears to squid that the source ip is the ip of the squid server itself, and i cant makeout as to which client is accessing in my SARG report generation tool.

Is there a way to tell Dansguardian to forward the real IP of the client to squid rather than the IP of the server itself. I didnt see any such option in the dansguardian.conf file (or may be i missed it)

Please guide.

Thanks
