Hi, is it possible for an IdTCPServer to get some sort of unique 
identity if browsers connect to it via HTTP through a proxy server?
The I.P. Addresses are identical to the proxy server's so I cannot use that!

I have : Indy9 + BCB6 Ent

Thanks!

Not from the connection itself, no.  You would have to create your own IDs
on the server side, and then make the clients send them back to the server
on every reqest, such as via cookies.
