Getting The Client IP Address

[RayA]

Bruce,
I would like to get the client ip address and set a session variable when the index page is requested.  What  emb point is the best place to do this?

Hi Ray,

you don't really need to set a session value, although you can if you like.

there's a method
p_web.GetSessionIP()
which returns the IP number of he current session.

while on this topic - there's a property
webserver.NoIPSpoofing
which when set, means that a session is "bound" to a specific IP address. This is more secure, but can e a problem if there are proxy servers, between the client and the server.

cheers
