User Accounts IP Issue

[huss]

Hi I noticed today that anyone connected to my jellyfin server, the IP shows my server IP and not their home IP. 
Seems strange, it used to always show the IP they are connected from until now. does anyone have any idea why or is this something with latest update.

I am running 
Jellyfin server 10.10.7
Debain server 12 OS
Hardware: Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-1650 v3 @ 3.50GHz, 12 cores & 128GB Ram 

I have it installed direct on hardware and using reverse proxy with letsencrypt ssl

is there any other info needed?


Thanks

You need to configure the reverse proxy properly as well as the known proxies within the networking section of Jellyfin. See: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-i...or-headers

The known proxies change happened with the last release I believe.

Hi bitmap
thanks for the reply, I just found it strange that all of a sudden it changed and started showing the server IP instead of the user IP.

I will follow the link and edit my reverse proxy. much appreciated

Hi
Can someone please help. originally my jellyfin reverse proxy was in

Code:

/etc/nginx/conf.d/jellyfin.conf

 

and now I am trying to follow the above link posted by bitmap and create the file

Code:

/etc/nginx/sites-available/jellyfin

 

which will forward requests to Jellyfin and symlink this file to

Code:

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled

 
but when I reload nginx I get the following warnings.

Code:

huss@jellyfin:~$ sudo nginx -t
2025/08/10 11:09:34 [warn] 2987#2987: duplicate value "TLSv1.2" in /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf:11

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
huss@jellyfin:~$

what did i do wrong for this to happen..
also I am not sure f this is right, but I renamed my 

Code:

/etc/nginx/conf.d/jellyfin.conf

to 

Code:

/etc/nginx/conf.d/jellyfin.conf.bak

 

since I thought I would be using the new one in 

Code:

/etc/nginx/sites-available/jellyfin

but not sure if that was right either.
