There was a entry in includes\DefaultSettings.php.
I removed the redundant entry in LocalSettings.php but still no IP, I will try a new wiki (must be a Windows thing, when it doesn't work re-install).
anon users cannot not edit.

This is really strange, I have another wiki that shows the IP address of unlogged in viewers but it has no $wShowIPinHeader entry in LocalSettings.php.
There is also no entry in the new wiki I am trying to setup.
Entering $wgShowIPinHeader = true; has no effect, the IP is still not shown.
This is probable not important, I just do not like 0.0.0.0 appearing and the same is referenced for the confirmation email with new signups.
Thanks for the replies,
Ralph

Duh, thanks shows ya what I know.
Now how do I turn it on?
Do I just make a entry in LocalSettings.php?
What is the syntax?
Yeah, just add
$wgShowIPinHeader = true;
to LocalSettings.php (or, more likely, change "$wgShowIPinHeader = false" to that, since I think true is the default, so you must have it explicitly turned off).
The default values are in includes/DefaultSettings.php. Mine has an entry reading:
$wgShowIPinHeader = true; # For non-logged in users
Check whether that entry is still there. Then, if you have an entry for $wgShowIPinHeader in LocalSettings.php, simply remove the one in LocalSettings.php. Not sure why your override in LocalSettings.php doesn't work. Have you verified that you don't have multiple entries?
Kind regards,
