First you say that www.rootshell.com could determine the IP of the client
of your cache then you say that it could not determine your real IP. Which
was it. If you only saw the address of your cache then the anonymizer is
working correctly. If you saw [127.0.0.1 -> 123.123.456.7] then you have
not turned off the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR option.
