have replaced the =foswiki.tmpl= or =foswiki.pattern.tmpl= with a local
version.

---+++ Additional support for Proxy configurations.

Foswiki has a new option under bin/configure -&gt; Security and Authentication -&gt; Proxies: ={PROXY}{UseForwardedForHeader}=. Enable this setting
if the Foswiki is accessed through a reverse proxy. Foswiki will the use the =X-Forwarded-For= header to determine the Client IP address. This has several effects:
* Foswiki will log the real Client IP address instead of the address of the reverse proxy server.
* Session IP matching will use the real client IP when determining if the CGI Session is for the correct client.
* Plugins that perform security functions based upon the IP address will see the real client IP address.
This setting should only be enabled if the majority of the clients access the server via the reverse proxy. It is possible for clients to spoof the
=X-Forwarded-For= header, so only enable this setting when appropriate to avoid client IP Address spoofing.

---+++ Change in HTTP status return for authentication failures.

The fix for [[%BUGS%/Item14445][Item14445]] changes the HTTP status return for authentiation errors from =401 - Unauthorized= to =200 - OK=
