Re: [PHP] Client IP
Hi,
How can I get remote IP adress of client?
I use the fillow script::
$ip=getenv('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR');
if (!$ip)

}
But sometime it return me unknown sa IP adress.
Can someone help me ?
Thanks in advance!

Either method will work. You just have to realize that sometimes the IP
address is not sent. There is no reliable way to get the clients IP
address, so do not depend on it.

Re: [PHP] Client IP
I've used this function before a couple of times, but I haven't tested
it fully. Give it a go if you want.
/*** BEGIN CODE ***/
// Function get_ip
function get_ip()
{
// List of possible ip sources, in order of priority
$ip_sources = array
(
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR,
HTTP_X_FORWARDED,
HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR,
HTTP_FORWARDED,
HTTP_X_COMING_FROM,
HTTP_COMING_FROM,
REMOTE_ADDR,
);
foreach ($ip_sources as $ip_source)
{
// If the ip source exists, capture it
if (isset($_SERVER[$ip_source]))
{
// Beware of semicolon seperated lists
$possible_ips = explode(;, $_SERVER[$ip_source]);
// Always take just the first
$proxy_ip = $possible_ips[0];
break;
}
}
// If the ip is still not found, try the getenv() function without
error reporting (may give false)
$proxy_ip = (isset($proxy_ip)) ? $proxy_ip : @getenv(REMOTE_ADDR);
return $proxy_ip;
}

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] always be set if you're using Apache? I've never experienced a case where it was not available. I'm no C guru, but from what I can tell by looking into the source for PHP 4.3.7 and Apache 1.3.28 it looks like Apache makes this variable available to PHP based on the information it stores internally about the currently-open connection to the client (see Apache's src/main/util_script.c, line 292). Have you experienced a case with Apache PHP where this variable was not available?

Rosen wrote: Ok, I don't understand why IP adress will bi invisible for $_SERVER variable. It should be there, but mostly because the CGI 1.1 spec requires that it be provided to the script. There is no physical requirement for it to be there. Reasons for it not being present could include: o Incomplete SAPI code; o A bug in the httpd or SAPI module, o etc... Even if it is there, it's entirely possible that it's just the IP address of a proxy--or even some other IP address entirely; it's not hard to spoof. Of course, all of this only applies when running as a CGI or module for handling web requests. No $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] will be set when running on the command line. Torben John W.
