Who's online issue

Hello,

Let me explain the whole situation.

Due to extensive ddos attacks on my server, i have to get a protection. This protection works through a proxy server. Everyone who's accessing my website, does it through the proxy server. That means that, EVERYONE who's viewing by website, has the same ip address (proxy's).

This has caused a few issues that i have managed to solve. All but this one...

SMF does not recognize eash GUEST as unique. It DOES recognize each logged in user, but not guests.
On my who's online module that i use, it only shows 1 guest online, when at this time there are probably 300 or 400 members online.

Please give me any possible solutions for this.
My website uses mambo 4.6.2 and orstio's bridge.

Thank you

Kindred

no solution... the only way to tell a guest is online is to figure it out from IP...   (for example, If I opened two browser windows, you would not want me showing up twice on your list....)
