Let's cut to the chase geeks, here is a food for thought.Read it, digest it
and voila, you are officially an IP xpert. Seriously though, this Alieu
Keita guy can chose to be a complete 1D10t or simply voice out his opinion
and not making a complete fool of himself. What if we found who this guy is, then
what? Extradite him? See there are more important things to tackle right now and
so let's remain vigilant and put our eyes on the price baby! Let's not geek out
on our fellow comrades. Dirimo Yahya Jammeh must go as my fellow comrade,
Mr Conteh-Jasseh, would say. Remember, brain cells don't regenerate, use them
wisely. Argue with a fool and you become a FOOL , KAPUT!

Yes Elow Wole,
I can see how Proxy servers and firewalls fit into matter of IP tracing.
Proxy servers and Firewalls sit between an intranet /extranet and the www.
They are used mostly for protection and  unauthorised access.

Remember that in order to be able to send an email an IP address must be
obtained for both the originating and destination machine, and the email
routed through a gateway (Router), which uses protocols such as RIP,
EIGRP,IGRP, OSPF etc in addition to details held on its routing table. These
are routing protocols which dictate how and where to send the informatioon.
The proxy server on the other hand accommodates routable protocols that
defined how the data is formatted.

My contention is that, because of the myriads of other overheads included,
in the delivery of data, there are simple tools readily available, which one
can use to trace the origin of an email back to the gateway and consequently
to the machine. However, this in no way reveals the identity of the sender
but only where the email came from.

In addition, if one is hiding behind a proxy server, the client machine must
have a way of identifying itself to the server, mainly through its NIC
number.  The server too must use a router ( which would have a unique Ip
address for identifying the network) to facilitate the sending of the email.

I hope I have clarify the point I was trying to make.

I would like to add that Alieu Keita can express his opinion as much as he
likes as the G-List is here for everyone.  It would be nice if he can extol
President Yaya Jammeh's achievement since 1994, rather than using rhetoric
and threats on people.

Mohin.
