That’s odd.  If I add the following line at “liveMedia/RTSPServer.cpp”, line 2031 (just before the “return” statement)
	fprintf(stderr, "#####@@@@@ clientAddr: %s\n", AddressString(clientAddr).val());
and build and run the server, I get (for the first client connection):
	#####@@@@@ clientAddr: 172.31.15.153

This should work if you put it inside your own “createNewClientConnection()”.  I don’t know why it’s not working for you.
