If you use Microsoft ISA Server (Latest version of MS Proxy), or even a
real
Firewall product, you'll be able to do things in a much nicer way.  The ISA
Server can be setup to appear to the outside world as a simgle webserver
listening on port 80.  Each request to the ISA server can then be analysed
and a new request made from the ISA server to the real LAN webservers (a, b
or c).  This is pretty much what we do at work.

One of the downsides is that the webserver sees all the requests as coming
>from
originated.  All the real logs should be on the ISA box.
