Move forward in the trail of headers. That is an internal server that is passing a message to an outward facing gateway machine that will have a valid IP address. Either one forward or two forward in the chain should give you the correct originating machine. I have been dropping all of those to /dev/null so I am afraid I can't help to track down the originating machine but they probably wouldn't respond to inquiries anyway. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
