[Gnump3d-users] Re: Proxy + X-Forwarded-For

[Michael Carpenter]

Well, I managed to hack the gnump3d script and template of choice enough to get 
this to work.
It's ugly, but it will do. Sadly the script makes a lot of assumptions about 
serving out of
the root folder which made what I wanted to do more difficult that I really 
wanted.
