Hi,

I'm using a table to log the user's name and time of connection. I'd like to log the user IP address as well but just cannot seem to make it work. How can I capture the IP value?

TIA

Emilio

Depends on what system you are using, additional information will be needed.

OS Server type and version, IIS type and version to start.

Also DB type and version.

Hope that helps,

Chris.

Emilio,
you can use the following:

Request.ServerVariables("remote_addr")

<%

Sub AfterSuccessfulLogin()

'** Insert a record into another table ****

strSQLInsert = "insert into dbo.logger (User_id) values ('" & Session("ownerID") & "')"

dbConnection.Execute strSQLInsert

End Sub

%>

...

strSQLInsert = "insert into dbo.logger (ipadd) Request.ServerVariables("remote_addr")"

...

Emilio

Here is a correct SQL:

strSQLInsert = "insert into dbo.logger (ipadd) values ('" & Request.ServerVariables("remote_addr") & "')"
