Is there any way of detecting whether a user is using a proxy server or not? if there is that would be great for IP banning.

banning IP seems unrealiable. How about using IP to approve the access right?
I m trying to use IP to verify a remote server that have access to my local server.

Anyone have experience in using IP this way? :roll:

Well. Everything you say here is true, but I already have my ways to find out if the IP is a person's IP or a proxyserver's IP.

And it's not so, that I ban someone every day, but just occasionally, when the same IP abuses the shoutbox several times.
