Jason, Thanks for the response. This module is actually designed for boxes that have quite a few IPs bound to them. I need to know what address the client is connecting to on the box. For example, I could have a box with 10.1.1.1 and 10.1.1.2 bound to it. If you connect to my server, I need to know if you're connecting to 10.1.1.1 or 10.1.1.2, this is part of our authentication. Is there a way for me to find this out? Thanks! -JD- On Tue, 28 Sep 2004 11:13:30 -0600, Jason Gerfen <jason.gerfen@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > the localhost? You could to a gethostbyname().
