Sorry Alexander,

Yeah, as Peter said, you can use getHeader(s) from Servlet API. Only if your
request header is customized one (like those for telecom), you should read
it by yourself.

Hi,

You need create your own request proecessor to retrieve it. You may have to
get http request full length header first and lookup your request header
structure and read block by block from the header. A better way is to take a
look at few headers and see if the block you need is always after which
block and what is the length.

Normally if adding extra info into header, the reserved blocks should be
appeared before the extra info.

Wish it helps

Dear All,

We currently have Tomcat Version5 install behind Pound reverse proxy! Our code 
cant identify the real source client IP instead the reverse proxy IP everytime, 
We understand Pound adds the X-Forwarded-for header with the original client 
address to every requestbut how we can identify it?
