KPF 2.1.5 log/config question

Morning, all -

We have in the house a LAN of three computers, all Win98 (2
SE and one FE). Internet is shared using Proxy+ program on
the 98 first edition box (dial-up modem).

Everything was working fine with ZA free, until I rebuilt
my machine (the server). Then I could no longer load it -
something appears to have broken the security certificates,
which I will continue to work on fixing.

But, based on a couple of years of lurking around here, I'm
trying out Kerio 2.1.5 in the meantime. I had planned to
switch over some day, anyhow.

I am accustomed to reviewing my firewall (ZA) log everyday
with a program called ZoneLog Analyser, then submitting it
to DShield with CVTWIN.

Can't do it now - every Kerio log entry shows localhost as
the source of incoming traffic. I'm supposing because of
the proxy. I understand it's not really a security issue -
the packets are blocked. But I would like to know, if
possible, the actual source of the packet.

Where in the configuration of the Proxy or Kerio or Win98
do I start? Or is this combination one that will always
result in localhost as a source? Seems odd that ZA could
log the actual source, but Kerio can't....

Thanks in advance. I'll try not to be too stupid in
understanding any advice, but I'm entirely self-taught on
this stuff, with lots of holes in my knowledge.

Cheryl
