Hi friends...
When i am geting IP address from my webservice (.asmx) file using...
-----------------
Dim ipNo As String
Dim ObjRequest as HttpRequest
ipNo = ObjRequest.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR").ToString
----------------------------------
What is the value of variable ipNo is ...

I have doubt... because it call from webservice client(user) page .

So the ouput IP is User client computer or WEBSERVICE Client (actually web server) IP.



Thanks

Why don't you try it out to find out? ;)

Anyway, when you say this:

because it call from webservice client(user) page .


does that mean the webservice is called from the client page in client side script, or server side with a server side technology?

In the first scenario, the client's IP will be passed; in the latter scenario it's the webserver that makes the call....

Cheers,

Imar

Thanks for prompt answer but clear me...
I want to know that ... I am fatching a Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") address
in My
webservice >> WEBMethod.

At that point This IP is client page ip or My webserver IP.

Actually why this questation in my mind coze...
When we use WEBSERVICE in our WEB Base application the flow
like that...

First Client Browser request .aspx page

In that .aspx page we use webservice so create a object for that webservice and call WEBMETHOD using that object.

so here i find a IP address using
ObjRequest.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR").ToString

So where i doubt is ... this webservice request is from Our WebServer ( Not direct user browser)
so HttpRequest object ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") return ip of ????? which IP ?

If I understand you correctly, that would return the IP address of your Web Server.

As far as the Web Service is concerned, your Web Server is the client. The Web Service doesn't really know there is also a browser client involved....

If you need the end-user's IP address, you'll need to pass it to one of your methods on the Web Service.

You can use ObjRequest.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR").ToString on the server that is executing the web application to get the client's address. This is what you'd pass to the web service.
