Real IP not being logged

Post by emb531 » Fri Dec 09, 2022 4:04 am

Hello, I am running the OpenVPN ESXI appliance.

Version is 2.11.1

Real IP Is not being logged under Log Reports, however the Real IP is shown while a user is connected under Current Users

I added DEBUG_LOGDB=1 to the as.conf file as described here (https://openvpn.net/vpn-server-resource ... ss-server/) and can see the Real IP is not being logged there as well.

I deployed a new instance of the appliance which comes with version 2.8.5 and Real IP logging does work on this version

So sometime in-between these versions it was broke

Thank you and I can provide any logs or more info if needed

Hello emb531,

We know. It's a minor regression introduced in 2.11.1. We have 2.11.2 in the works that will resolve this.

Kind regards,
Johan
