Looking at the mod_remoteip source code for httpd 2.4.6 [1], it appears
the directive RemoteIPProxyProtocol does not exist anymore. I'm not sure
to understand how the versioning works.
And indeed, it looks like versioning works differently than you
believe it does. With the vast majority of open source projects, the
dots separate decimal numbers, not digits that are used individually.
So 2.4.9 is older than 2.4.10 and 2.4.4 is a lot older than 2.4.40.

Compiling a mod_remoteip from a different version of httpd may work,
but you should compile just the one module using the header files from
the httpd developer packages, apr etc. that belong to the httpd you're
actually using, not the where you're getting the updated mod_remoteip.

I suspect you're using RHEL or CentOS. There are packages of newer
httpds available, for example in the redhat software collections, but
they are probably supported differently from the one included in the
standard distribution.

Hi,

in the doc, each directive that has been added or modified in the 2.4.x branch should have a compatibility note.

For RemoteIPProxyProtocol, you can see at [1], that it has been introduced in 2.4.31, and as explained above 2.4.6 is older than 2.4.31.

Best regards,
CJ
