Hi all,

I need to add a script that can obtain the IP address of a PC that visits a
particular webpage. It must work on NS or IE, so Javascript is not an
option. I've found several Java class files that claim to return the
address, but they all seem to return localhost/127.0.0.1, whereas I need the
actual IP of the machine.

Can anyone help me with this one?

Thanks,
Ben.
