My site is hosted on X01, and ever since 2016-03-08 at 7:00:00 GMT, the value of the REMOTE_ADDR header for all HTTP requests to my site has been set to 198.91.81.2. This is the IP address of X01 itself. Clearly, something is wrong in the Apache configuration on X01.

Also affected on my end. Here's the information my script is returning:
---------- SERVER CONFIG - DEBUGGER ----------

HOSTNAME (or at least the name): xo2
IP [REMOTE_ADDR]: 198.91.81.4
IP [HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR]: [IP 1 OMITTED], [IP 2 OMITTED]

The third header has the actual information that isn't to do with X10. Yes there's two because I'm using a network that also uses a proxy at the moment.

This problem has been fixed, it shouldn't be happening. If you notice the trouble recur please let us know right away.

Can you check again now? It looks like I forgot to apply the configuration change on the xo2 server.
