Description-en: Module to remove IP from apache2's logs
This package provides the removeip module for the Apache 2 webserver.
This module allows for overwriting Apache's environment variable
REMOTE_ADDR with a fixed value. This is necessary to anonymize all logs
written by Apache and to prevent web applications from accessing the original
IP address.
.
Please be advised that activating this module may cause unexpected side effects
to the behavior of your web applications.
