I was just wondering if anyone had found out a way to get the client's remote ip address when proxying with Webstar V to 4D. I know this was brought up a while ago, but it never had a resolution to it. So I thought I'd ask again.
Yes, it can be done along the lines that Michael suggested. Paste the text between the horizontal lines below into a text file, change the address 192.168.1.13:8080 to your 4D IP and port, then import it into a WebStar proxy rule.

name preprocess postprocess field1 compare1 value1 bool1 field2 compare2 value2 bool2 field3 compare3 value3 result jumpto
Active4D GET + query true false url pcre (/ 4[dD][cC][gG][iI])?([^\.]+).(a4d|a4p|inc)\?(.+) and request begin GET clientip 192.168.1.13:8080/4dcgi$1.2.$1.3?$1.4&client_ip=$3
Active4D GET true false url pcre (/4[dD][cC][gG][iI])?([^\.]+).(a4d|a4p|inc) and request begin GET clientip 192.168.1.13:8080/ 4dcgi$1.2.$1.3?client_ip=$3
Active4D POST + query true false url pcre (/ 4[dD][cC][gG][iI])?([^\.]+).(a4d|a4p|inc)\?(.+) and request begin POST clientip 192.168.1.13:8080/4dcgi$1.2.$1.3?$1.4&client_ip=$3
Active4D POST true false url pcre (/4[dD][cC][gG][iI])?([^\.]+).(a4d|a4p|inc) and request begin POST clientip 192.168.1.13:8080/ 4dcgi$1.2.$1.3?client_ip=$3
---------------------------------------------------------------
This rule will put "client_ip" into the query params of every request, which you can access within Active4D with query params{"client_ip"}. Starting with b15 you can replace 'query params' with '_query'.
