Umm, well. Do you have any idea what port it would be listening on? step 1. nmap the network looking for that port step 2. use netcat to connect to each system or roll your own script step 3. use the URI -> GET http://internalserver/ HTTP/1.0 step 4. look at the results, if it's a proxy then you should get the index page (or whatever) from "internalserver". There are many other ways, but this is just one brute force way. -- When little kids ask where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying."
