I have a dedicated server with a number of IP addresses.
When you make a connection through fsockopen it connects using the servers
main IP address.
What I want to do is specify which of my IP addresses fsockopen uses.
Thanks

fclose($fs);
and I need the remote conection to see me as one of my other IP's
Ive read through socket_bind
http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.socket-bind.php
but cant see how to use it with my above code
Thanks
I'm not sure if it's possible, it depends on the setup of switches
etc. You're remote connection is outside your LAN right? If so, then
your IP address is assigned by your ISP, this is assigned for each
connection. I guess you have more then one connection from your ISP,
then you have more then one IP. So if you have more then one
connection, you have more then one modem/router. So if you want to use
the IP of another connection, you should connect through another
router/modem. But this depends on your setup, and has nothing to do
with PHP.
