Hide my servers public static IP address

[Thalix]

Whatever you do, in the end the client has to connect to your server and then your IP is visible. Under Windows, for example, in a command prompt with the command "netstat". There is no way to prevent this, unless you have a server somewhere that acts as a transparent proxy to pass on your connections. This service could certainly be bought somewhere, but it is expensive (1000$ and more per year) and significantly degrades the connection to your server (i.e. laaaaaag). And even then, someone with a bit of an idea would be able to find your IP.
