ASP and IP addresses

[Bill Crouch]

I can't find the code to display the client IP address on
the client browser. Shouldn't it be 'session. '?

Request.SErvervariables("remote_addr") will display the IP that the request
comes from, whether that's an IP of a proxy server, firewall, router, or the
client machine.

Hi Ray,

These are two of the "Session" code instances I am
currently playing with. Both display on the client PC
the session ID and the Date and Time.


Your Current Session ID is: <%=session.sessionid %>

Today is: <% =Date() %>

The time is: <% =Time() %>

I had just thought that the IP display would be session
related.

Thanks!

The client's IP isn't related to a session, nor is the
Request.ServerVariables method that good for identifying the user's
unique ID either since large ISP's will often proxy requests (AOL,
MSN, et. al.) and anyone behind a firewall will usually return the
firewall address.
