log file logs private IP of client home network
#6604
ON my home network, I have a transparent proxy. I am connecting
to a rails server across the Internet. I was surprised to see this
in the logs:
Started GET "/auction/login" for 192.168.2.1 at 2011-03-22
07:59:12 -0500
192.168.2.1 is the IP address of my home network internal
router. Not my laptop, not my internal proxy... and most of all,
not my public IP address. To the admin of the server, the address
makes absolutely no sense. The server should only need to report
the public ip!
