Hi there,

I were warned by the datacenter network admin which said that my server  
is doing spoofed packets. When I did tcpdump, here’s the results. It  
serving from 0.0.0.0:80 rather than my own IP. Can you please tell me  
what’s wrong with that?

Thank’s before

It’s likely OS problem, and clearly not nginx’s one. Assuming you  
are using Linux, this may be relevant:

Yes it seems the same. But still doesn’t have any solutions. Do you have  
any suggestions?
