Re: mod_extract_forwarded or mod_rpaf for Apache 2.2/2.4?

Unfortunately,

none of the backports and forks at freshports.org, people.apache.org or gist.github.com worked. They were all based on an early alpha version of apache httpd 2.3 which was neither compatible with current versions of 2.2 nor 2.4.

So after hours of wasting time while trying to adjust the backports to create a real working one for httpd 2.2, I decided to move to httpd 2.4.

Thanks. Is anything like that available for Apache 2.2? Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
only ships with Apache 2.2.22. I would have to build my own Apache with
all dependencies just for this single module.

These modules change the value of REMOTE_ADDR to the original client IP
address behind a proxy request, that is given by the X-Forwarded-for header
- only if the request comes from trusted hosts of course. It makes rewriting
scripts to check for both REMOTE_ADDR and X-Forwarded-For head obsolete and
means you can continue to use .htaccess access permissions (Allow and Deny
from).

httpd 2.4 has mod_remoteip for that purpose:

Kind regards
