THAT would be nice!

[dracflamloc]

When is this being added fred?

[geoff]

Thanks for your procedure olejr
Using purebasic functions and pre-defined structures this can be reduced to:

Code: Select all

Procedure.s GetClientIP(ClientID) 
 s=SizeOf(sockaddr_in)
 res=getpeername_(ClientID,@ip.sockaddr_in,@s) 
 If res = 0 
   remotip$=IPString(ip\sin_addr)
 Else 
   remotip$ = "" 
 EndIf 
 ProcedureReturn remotip$ 
EndProcedure

I third this question .. couldn't find a reference in the pb 3.94 help file. I could be missing it?

I didn't know about it. Will that return your external IP address like the topic says? If so, how do we use it? I don't understand the manual for it as I'm not network-savvy.

The function does what is discussed in this topic: returns the IP of the client connected to your network server. Not your own.

Why do you bump a 15 year old topic if you don't even understand what is asked there? The issue discussed here has been solved for almost as long as the topic exists.

What you are asking for is currently being discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=74663
