Remote IP address not getting logged

Hello all,

My configuration look like this:

LogFormat "%a %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i
\" %D" combined
CustomLog "|/usr/sbin/rotatelogs /home/y/logs/httpd/access_log-%Y-%m-
%d-%H 3600" combined

This is not logging the remote ip address, instead is logged as "::"
as follows:

:: - - [04/Apr/2008:01:23:40 -0700] "GET /status.html HTTP/1.0" 404
296 "-" "-" 203
:: - - [04/Apr/2008:01:23:40 -0700] "GET /status.html HTTP/1.0" 404
296 "-" "-" 107

Any clue on what configuration change required?

I am running httpd-2.0.59 on RHEL4.

Other configuration parameters:

ServerName localhost
Listen 8081
HostnameLookups off

Thanx,
-- baliga

As you have hostname lookups switched off, try %h instead of %a.

Tried that.. but no luck... Some how request_rec->connection-
>remote_ip is being set to "::"

Those colons make me wonder about IPv6-ish conflicts.
