OpenVZ Host is the source IP address rather than actual web surfers?

I have a problem with my VPS. Simple example:

<?php $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; 
Echo "User IP : " . $ip; 
?>

That code should display the user IP address, but it's showing the HN IP address (not VPS IP address).

Again when I'm logging via ssh to the virtual container, the IP that was logged in is the Hardware nod's IP.

Similar issue is here: OpenVZ Host is the source IP address rather than actual web surfers?

Here is the openVZ configuration:

Can someone please help me ? Also, I'm not an expert so if someone can explain step by step, I would really appreciate it.

OK, so here is what I've done. I've stop the iptables service and removed the section with mangle and nat from /etc/sysconfig/iptables . As instructed by Adam, i've removed "iptable_mangle" from file /etc/sysconfig/vz in line section "## IPv4 iptables kernel modules". I did:

iptables -t nat -L iptables -t mangle -L

I've restarted the iptables service and problem solved.

Now I can se my private IP in the server log :D

Many thank to Adam for pointing out the mangle and nat.

Good luck!
