Getting IP address behind proxy
I've been wondering how some sites like dyndns.org are able to see ip behind proxy. I'd like to be able to see ip like this also, because I'm developing banning system to my site and I would like to see behind proxy so I could ban specific IP and not whole proxy.
Any ideas?

With php:
Proxy server: getenv("HTTP_VIA")
IP: getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR: getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR")

Thanks for answer, but those didn't work. I tried echoing them but only REMOTE_ADDR worked and it printed my proxy address. Is somekind of special configuring required for Apache settings?
Strange thing is, that Dyndns.org's site can see my IP behind proxy.
