Retrieve User IP Address

Post by RussCraig »

How would I go about retrieving a web user's IP address? I've been trying to use the 'QDCRDEVD' API, but it keeps returning blanks for positions 878-892 (where the IP normally is located). Do we have to go about it a different way seeing as it's an HTTP user?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I've also tried the "getenv('REMOTE_ADDR')" command, but it returns blanks.

This is not currently supported but I can see this could be useful. It will be added in the next release of Profound UI

I see this was added in 2.1.1, great job guys! I can now track my remote user IP's for auditing.

Thanks again!
