Another issue is that the dovecot logs always report the offending URL or IP as what’s in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/95-auth.conf in our case:
auth_policy_server_url = https://ourdomain:8084/ <https://dsm.dsm.fordham.edu:8084/>

These are HTTP errors in the logs:

So wforce is always recording the “bad” IP as 127.0.0.1 or the FQDN, and not the actual user IP. Is there another place to set this?

Perhaps I have to set this in wforce.conf?
webserver("0.0.0.0:8084", “ourpassword")
