Thanks Igor!

To the rest of the list - I think my akamai guy mistyped it to me. It actually appears to be "True-Client-IP" I think. That one seems to be working properly :)

Is there any way to make the "real_ip_header" accept -any- header, instead of only X-Forwarded-For and X-Real-IP?

I have a site on nginx behind Akamai, and they transmit a "True-Client_IP" header with the actual client IP.

They send X-Forwarded-For as well, but it appears it might not be legitimate.

I'm thinking this is pretty simple... I assume it's only a couple lines of code to change...

The attached patch allows any header in "real_ip_header":

real_ip_header True-Client_IP;
