Are you targeting IE and Netscape?
If IE alone .. you can make use of Windows Script Host and File System Object to achieve this.
chk out http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Q_11013581.html .. replace physical address with Host Name ... that sample would work.

How do you browse to your application? Using http://localhost? The it will always return 127.0.0.1 as localhost *is* 127.0.0.1
Try your fully qualified machine name (depends on your ISP and network), or try browsing with the IP address directly.
Cheers,

Open a Command Prompt and type ipconfig
You should see your IP address....

Ah, I see now. Vadivel was right. By default, Remote_Host returns the client IP address, not the machine's name.
In an Intranet scenario you can do a reverse DNS lookup to get the name of the machine instead of the IP address.
See here for more details: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q245574/
Just curious: why do you need the name and not just the address??
