HttpRequest.getRemoteAddr() returns localhost invoking a jsp or servlet directly, without a connected web server

           Summary: HttpRequest.getRemoteAddr() returns localhost invoking a
                    jsp or servlet directly, without a connected web server
           Product: Tomcat 3
           Version: 3.3 Final
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.prosa.com
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Webapps
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: saviane@prosa.com


I installed Tomcat on my server. Invoking one of the sample jsp 
(http://www.prosa.com/examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp)
returns the expected snoop values:

JSP Request Method: GET 
Request URI: /examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp 
Request Protocol: HTTP/1.1 
Servlet path: /jsp/snp/snoop.jsp 
Path info: null 
Path translated: null 
Query string: null 
Content length: 0 
Content type: null 
Server name: www.prosa.com 
Server port: 80 
Remote user: null 
Remote address: 195.120.217.111 
Remote host: 195.120.217.111 
Authorization scheme: null 
Locale: it 

Invoking the same jsp page bypassing the web server 
(http://www.prosa.com:3080/examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp) produces the following 
values:

JSP Request Method: GET 
Request URI: /examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp 
Request Protocol: HTTP/1.1 
Servlet path: /jsp/snp/snoop.jsp 
Path info: null 
Path translated: null 
Query string: null 
Content length: -1 
Content type: null 
Server name: www.prosa.com 
Server port: 3080 
Remote user: null 
Remote address: 127.0.0.1 
Remote host: localhost 
Authorization scheme: null 
Locale: it
