Is haproxy adding X-Forwarded-For to the request it sends varnish? If
so, just don't have varnish manipulate X-Forwarded-For and your app will
use the header added by HAProxy.

Hi guys
Originally we had haproxy in front and connecting to backend server
haproxy -> backend server
and applications and backend server see the real client ip fine without any
issues
But we decided to try adding Varnish cache in between
haproxy -> varnish -> backend server
Problem now is backend server and ips are seeing the client ip of the haproxy
server and not real visitor client ips.
varnish has the appropriate forwarding of client ips,
remove req.http.X-Forwarded-For;
set req.http.X-Forwarded-For = client.ip;
and works if Varnish only in front of backends.
So what setting if any in haproxy would I need to add or check for, to get the
proper client ip from haproxy through varnish into the backend ?
Using haproxy v1.3 here with Varnish 3.0.2.
thanks
