Regarding REMOTE ADDR

[cosmicgr]

I had a PHP script on my index page of my website which stored the IP address of the vistors. Since the server upgrades, it is showing all IPs as the IP address of the Boru server, not of the vistors. The PHP script uses REMOTE ADDR to obtain the IP address. What could be the reason for this?

I believe that that issue had been corrected, but I'll check again. In the meantine, you can also use X_FORWARDED_FOR.

I've alerted staff, they should fix this as soon as possible.

thanks! btw, can i use X-FORWARDED_FOR in the same way i use REMOTE_ADDR in the PHP script?
