    Hello,
    I have set up a proxy solution for secure browsing. I have followed post no. 4 at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=812065 which worked fine.
    I can pass the proxy test at http://whatismyipaddress.com/staticpages/index.php/advanced-proxy-test (no proxy detected)
    but when I try this test http://www.proxyserverprivacy.com/adv-free-proxy-detector.shtml I get "it seems you are behind proxy 999,999,999 (999,999,999)"
    *999.999.999 is my VPS IP.
    Do you have any idea how to pass the test?
    Your help much appreciated!

      I dont get what you're trying to achieve.

      Do you tunnel an OpenVPN connection through a proxy and then test something?

      We do what we must, because we can.

        if the proxy is detected. I do not want it to be detected. I know it can be done (using openvpn).

          Again: you should explain a bit more verbose what you're trying to achieve.
          Somehow i get the feeling that you read somewhere that you can tunnel through a proxy with OpenVPN, but that you dont know what OpenVPN is.
          –> http://openvpn.net/
          It can help you to get connections through a proxy that wouldnt be able to get through.

            I want my client public IP appeared to be my server IP. I installed and set up OpenVpn (all my client traffic is now forced through the tunnel to the server where is NATed) - all works sweet except the one test here: http://www.proxyserverprivacy.com/adv-free-proxy-detector.shtml which detects me using proxy.  All other tests I found (i.e. here: http://whatismyipaddress.com/staticpages/index.php/advanced-proxy-test for example) I passed undetected. Do you have any idea what could the test at proxyserverprivacy can test on?
