Thanks Jonathan!

Well I can not comment regarding getting professional service. Infact I will be glad to have support but If I go with this approach then I would rather be asked to use web server which supports the said feature. (This is doable
in apache). And I really don't want to do away with Nginx.

With lack of reply I understand this isn't possible in nginx at the moment but I hope this is taken as feature request so that I can use it in nginx
and does not have to rely on other web server.

The chances are it's probably possible, however this mailing list/forum has a limited subset of nginx users available to assist.

I'm not sure why you have the requirement to use the XFF header to get geoip, but have you looked at the realip module <http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_realip_module.html>. My first thought would be to configure it to ignore RFC1918 addresses so the real IP would in theory become a true IP which geoip could then use for locating the user.

I have a piwik install on nginx, behind varnish with another nginx instance doing SSL termination. Using realip to detect the user's location seems to have done the trick.

Steve.
