[Pound Mailing List] internal servers and client requests correct IP logging

Hi all,

I'm running pound on a production server hosting several domains, each 
one runs in a virtual machine and pound redirects traffic according to 
requested domain.

the issue is that each virtual server see all requests coming from the 
pound IP, meaning that:

a) some servers can count all failed login attempt to the CRM 
administration page and block the source IP after some wrong attempts, 
but the source IP is always the IP of the host running pound, so a 
legitimate client is blocked until the protection timeout

b) in the log of the web servers the requesting IP is always the IP of 
the host running pound, making very difficult the log analisys against 
attacks, because I need to analize the pound log too

is there any workaround? or suggestion to make accessible the CRM 
administration login pages to few external IPs only?

thanks

luciano
