Short of modifying the source code to backfit it to 2.2.6 (which I am at a loss how to
do), it's been suggested I look at mod_proxy, which is apparently part of the base for
2.2.6 (I am explicitly NOT loading this module right now). But I don't see the header
"X-Forwarded-For" cited anywhere in the mod_proxy documentation, and I would expect that
if this is a typical use of mod_proxy, there'd be SOMETHING like that noted there.

Thoughts on either the refitting for Apache 2.2.6 of mod_remoteip, using mod_proxy for the
same purpose, or some other method of achieving this with the module's I've got to work with?

Some modules I've moved back to 2.2, including remoteip, can be found here;
http://people.apache.org/~wrowe/httpd-2.2-ports/ --- apxs should work for you
with those sources.

	Wow, thanks.   Have already got things running with the mod_rpaf module
	that Igor cited, but will look into this one as well since it would fit
	closer to the normal configurations once we upgrade from Apache 2.2.6
	to a later release.
