Restarted Apache & nginx, yum updated. Indeed the vsite configuration 
for nginx is newly being written on a disable & enable nginx, but the 
behaviour is the same: Apache does not receive the ipaddress of the 
visitor, but the ipaddres of nginx.

The vhosts configuration of nginx contain these lines:
       proxy_set_header     Host $host;
       proxy_set_header     X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
       proxy_set_header     X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

But Apache is not picking this up. It is my understanding that Apache 
should be told this by the RemoteIPHeader directive. But I can not find 
this directive in any Apache configuration file.

How can I debug this?

Kind regards
Maurice
