Hi all,

Does apache automatically log the client IP address if the client goes
through a proxy that sends an X-Forwarded-For header?

No.  Doing so would allow trivial spoofing since the X-Forwarded-For
header is completely under the control of the client.

If i set up a proxy for people, and do NOT want it to be anonymous, will
my proxy ip show up in other servers http-access logs?

No.
