Re: [squid-users] problem with follow_xff patch

I know, but where did it go wrong, where to look for. That is the problem.

As far as I can see the configure.in file is correct:
follow_xff=1
AC_ARG_ENABLE(follow-x-forwarded-for,
[ --enable-follow-x-forwarded-for
                          Enable support for following the X-Forwarded-For
                          HTTP header to try to find the IP address of the
                          original or indirect client when a request has
                          been forwarded through other proxies.],
[ if test "$enableval" = "yes" ; then
    echo "follow X-Forwarded-For enabled"
    follow_xff=1
  fi
])
if test $follow_xff = 1; then
    AC_DEFINE(FOLLOW_X_FORWARDED_FOR, 1, [Enable following X-Forwarded-For
headers])
else
    AC_DEFINE(FOLLOW_X_FORWARDED_FOR, 0)
fi
