If it is about truly using the client IP when forwarding the request and
not only showing it in the X-Forwarded-For header then study the TCP
specifications and think again (Note: Squid is an application, not a
packet router). It can theoretically be done just as transparently
proxying can, but basically only if HTTP is the only and only thing your
clients have access to, and then only via the proxy, and the proxy is
running on the router which does not allow any traffic to be routed for
the client except what is being redirected to the proxy application. If
not all these criterias are true then special care must be used to not
mess up TCP/IP networking for the clients...
