mod_status ans X-Real-IP?

Hello to all,

i need to view /server-status; problem is that my Apache is behind the
http proxy (nginx) and status page shows only IP of proxy, not the IP of
original host.

Is there any possibility to "patch" mod_status.c (or anything else?) to
be able to show X-Real-IP variable? (I pass X-Real-IP in HTTP header to
Apache).

Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Vladimir

mod_rpaf2 or mod_remoteip can be configured to do this. It won't patch
mod_status, it will make the request appear to come from the client IP
in all cases.

Thank you Tom for your hint. mod_rpaf2 works excellent!

Note: We use Debian Lenny with its Apache 2.2.x and mod_remoteip is just
for 2.3.x branch.

No probs. mod_remoteip is for 2.3, but it will compile cleanly for
2.2.x as well (any chance of a backport for 2.2.16 devs?).
