From the binkd configuration, of course. :)

Port 8118 is the default port of privoxy.

===
proxy privoxy.localnet:8118
===

And that hostname resolves:
===
tommi@pin:~$ host privoxy.localnet
privoxy.localnet has address 192.168.1.24
privoxy.localnet has address 192.168.1.15
===

So there is also some fault tolerancy and load balancing between my two ISP's. ;D
