Byron, this is basically the same code I've written. However, in other forums 
I've seen discussion of the X-FORWARDED-FOR header being seamlessly translated 
into REMOTE_ADDR by Tomcat. The code solution you're suggesting works, and if 
it's the way to go I'll accept that, but it means we'll have to add this to 
every application behind the firewall, leading to much testing and deployments, 
etc.

I was hoping someone might know of an Apache configuration or an Apache plugin 
would enable this translation on the fly.
