    I need to modify the Send Thoughts module so that I will get the users public IP address.

    Can someone please provide some light on how I might accomplish this?

    You may be able accomplish what you want using the Request.Servervariables("REMOTE_ADDR") header.

    These may help:

    HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;
    or
    HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

    To get the IP address of the machine and not the proxy use the following code

    HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];

    etariq:
    HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];

    I tried that and it didn't work. No IP address is showing.

    Take a look at the log module as it shows IP information.  You can just copy that functionality.

    Not sure what you mean by log module. Where do I look for and what do I need to copy?

    Rainbow has a log module.  You can find this on the portal by going on the Admin menu and clicking on logs and then  Monitoring and Logs.   This will show you IP info and you can get the functionality from DesktopModules\Monitoring.

    I'm still not clear what you mean. I don't have admin rights to the web server. I only have rights to my own little web space. So I'm not sure what you mean by admin menu or DesktopModules\Monitorings.

    When you login to rainbow, you see the admin menu correct?   Off of the admin menu is a logs tab, off the logs tab is monitoring.  I dont mean admin to the server; I mean admin to your portal.

    Even I have simillar kind of problem.
    We have intranet application and I need to cature the  IPAddress of the client.

    I am trying to capture the remote address.
    I tried  in different ways as below.. but the result of all is 127.0.0.1

    HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables(    "REMOTE_ADDR")
    Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_HOST")
    Request.UserHostAddress()
    Request.UserHostName()

    I guess firewall/NAT Box hiding internal IP addresses.
    is there any way to get actual IP.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi vitta, I got the same problem and I found the solution by doing dis:

                    string strHostName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName();
                    string clientIPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString();

    I got this solution from C# corner. website

    This example demonstrates how to find out the visitor's browser type, IP address, and more:

    <html>
<body>
<p>
<b>You are browsing this site with:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("http_user_agent"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>Your IP address is:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("remote_addr"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>The DNS lookup of the IP address is:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("remote_host"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>The method used to call the page:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("request_method"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>The server's domain name:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("server_name"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>The server's port:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("server_port"))%>
</p>
<p>
<b>The server's software:</b>
<%Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("server_software"))%>
</p>
</body>
</html>
