proxy_set_header                Host                    $host;
proxy_set_header                X-Real-IP               $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header                X-Forwarded-For
$proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;



And on apache :

LoadModule rpaf_module modules/mod_rpaf-2.0.so
RPAFenable On
RPAFsethostname On
RPAFproxy_ips 127.0.0.1
RPAFheader X-Forwarded-For
