How about using the RequestHandler's function for getting the ip(the name i forgot was some thing like getClientIP i guess). should deal with most of the situations. On Wed, Jan 7, 2009 at 10:21 AM, Bernardo Vieira wrote: > > In that case you want the router's ip, not the server's private ip > be

In that case you want the router's ip, not the server's private ip behind the router, and this is exactly what $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] yields. You'll also have to set up some portfowarding on the target router to give you access to whatever port/protocol you want to use for your remote access.

Well, since I'm not sure what you want the IP address for, I'm not sure I can answer your question, but ... In order to get the client IP address, you have to ask the client for it (javescript, executable, etc). That said, the address may be completely useless to you. Take an example of a NAT n

Note that this can be misleading for people using proxy servers, since you'll get the IP address of the proxy instead of the actual machine in most cases. Same is true for NAT based IP addresses, you will typically get a single IP address for a NAT subnet. On Jan 6, 11:53 am, Aus wrote: > Fantas
