RE: User IP Address

	request.getRemoteAddr() will get the user's IP Address
	requet.getRemoteHost() will do DNS lookup on the address

	request.getHeader("Referrer") is the referrer, I believe.

Should be able to query the HTTPServletRequest object to get this
information, try looking there

Anyone know if it's possible to use JSP / Tomcat to get user IP addresses
(for logging)? - or any other user info that might go to the server (like
referrer)?
 
Ideas and sample code would be very welcome...
 
Thanks
 
Mark

Re: User IP Address

Posted by "Corey A. Johnson" <cj...@cniweb.net>.
one thing to note that i discovered the hard way.. referrer should be spelled
as so:

request.getHeader("referer")

not sure why... but i beat my head against the wall for an hour... until i
tried the alternate spelling...
