IP passthrough issue about caddy

[mholt]

the upstream server's nginx still gets the Caddy server's local IP instead of the client's IP.

In what way? The connection will always be coming from Caddy, nginx has to be reading the headers to get the IP...

(Closing, since I'm not sure this is a bug and it's not really actionable right now, but we can reopen if needed. Feel free to continue discussion.)

"Sorry, this is my first time using Caddy.

The flow is: Client (192.168.0.105) -> Caddy (192.168.0.150) -> Nginx (192.168.0.121).

I've configured X-Forwarded-For and X-REAL-IP in Caddy as well, but Nginx's logs still show the IP of Caddy instead of the client's IP."

nginx config:

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;
    location / {
        root   html;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }
}

That might require extra config on nginx's side: https://gist.github.com/dublado/30494c771730437ee88209f168b9affd
