Hi all

I have a network question: How can i retrieve the remote adress of a network client? This is the adress, thru which the client is connected to the server. I need to retrieve this adress on the client side.

Example:

[Server: 192.168.0.1] <--> [Client: 192.168.0.2]

the remote adress of the client would be 192.168.0.2 . The problem is, that if the client has more than one IP adress i don't know which one is the right one.

Thanks for any help! merendo

Is this what you need? http://www.purearea.net/pb/CodeArchiv/I ... emoteIP.pb

Exactly! But I need to retrieve the localip$ on the client side. Not on the server side

strange question but... what would you need it for?

Little security check for a chat programme... Since an earlier version of that progamme has been cracked, i used to be more careful.

The code works on the client side as well. Just run it after connecting to the server, and store put the connection ID in the cnid var...

Looks like it really works. Thank you very much indeed!
