Hi Yusuf,

yes, this is possible. First you set "forwarded_for on" in squid.conf,
then you have to change the common logfile format in Apache's httpd.conf
like this:

Change
        LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
into
        LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common

That's all!

Good luck,
