Hello Tomcat community
I have tomcat (5.0.28) running behind pound (2.1.3)
reverse-proxy-load-balancer.
This is a very effective setup, as I have pound also fronting apache and
mongrel-rails
clusters.
Question:
Pound adds the following to its request to backend servers:
X-Forwarded-for: client-IP-address
I would like to be able to obtain this client-IP address in the tomcat
access logs.
I tried all available formats (%a, %A, %b, %B, etc.,etc.) for the
logger pattern,
but of course, none produced the client IP address placed in the request by
Pound.
I could, of course, grep through the Pound log output which, by default,
winds
up on /var/log/messages, but would rather just be able to see this in the
tomcat access log.
How could I, say, derive my own logger class and capture this header
info that
pound places in the request to backend server ??
Is there a simpler way ? Am I unaware of a direct way to do this ?
