Re: Apache reverse proxy configuration and ip addresses

Hi,

We have two Apache servers on our IBM I that is in the DMZ. They are
setup to listen on different ip addresses and different ports. These
servers are for web services.

System 1 - IBMi in DMZ
Apache Server 1 listens on IP Address 10.2.0.31 port 10200
Apache Server 2 listens on IP Address 10.2.0.109 port 10000

I'm adding a reverse proxy setup to Server 1 so that it forwards requests
back to another Apache server on an IBM I (System 2) in our trusted
network. When I test this setup, the Apache access log on System 2 shows
the client ip address as 10.2.0.109. I was expecting it to be 10.2.0.31.
Anyone know why that is?
