Re: forwardfor option

you need a line like this on your webserver configuration (this one is for apache2)

LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined

you can find a more detailed explanation here on section 2: "Preparing The Backend Web Servers"
