Name        : mod_extract_forwarded
Product     : Fedora EPEL 6
Version     : 2.0.2
Release     : 8.el6
URL         : http://www.openinfo.co.uk/apache/
Summary     : Extract real source IP for forwarded HTTP requests
Description :
mod_extract_forwarded hooks itself into Apache's header parsing phase and looks
for the X-Forwarded-For header which some (most?) proxies add to the proxied
HTTP requests. It extracts the IP from the X-Forwarded-For and modifies the
connection data so to the rest of Apache the request looks like it came from
that IP rather than the proxy IP.
