Hi,

I have an OpenSER DISPATCHER instance successfully forwarding requests 
to one of four OpenSER "worker" instances. I need to authorize by 
originating IP on the worker machines but of course requests are only 
coming from the dispatcher machine.

I had thought of having the dispatcher drop the originating IP in the 
headers but haven't been able to figure out how to do that. Something 
like append_hf( "origin: $si\r\n" );?

I had also thought about having the dispatcher send back a 302 Moved 
Temporarily but can't figure out how to get at the dispatched IP.

Is there a better way to be doing this short of checking for the IP on 
the dispatcher? I had hoped to avoid that in favor of having the 
dispatcher handle extreme load.

Thanks.

-Anders
