Hi Greg,

Have you considered installing mod_rpaf into Apache? It effectively replaces the REMOTE_ADDR so that instead of containing the IP address of your proxy, it is replaced with the contents of your X-Forwarded-For header. In the Apache logs, the end-user's IP address is logged.

Regards

John.
