Hi to the readers,
I had an issue on a Tiki that I'm administrating.
This issue was that I had always the same IP address both in tiki-syslog.php and the history of a wiki page.
This happened because this Tiki installation is behind a reverse proxy.To get the correct IPs, I had to check the "feature_loadbalancer" option in the "general" icon from the admin panel.
The strange thing about this from an user point of view is that I shouldn't expect to tick that box option as I'm not doing nothing about load-balancing. I was expecting to see an option such as "click that check-box if your Tiki installation is behind a reverse proxy".
It may be only a definition issue or a bigger bug. I don't know really and this is far away from my knowledge and skills.
Hope that helps and thanks again for this beautiful piece of software that Tiki is.
