Get remote name?

[Lasse Edsvik]

Hello

I was wondering if it's possible to get "the name" istead of ip from a user
that runs a asp page?

cust10354-344.someisp.com istead of 231.13.434.23

If your server is able to resolve the name, here's a fairly clumsy method.

<%
Dim sIP
Dim oShell, oExec, sCommand, sOutput
sIP = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
sCommand = "%comspec% /c @echo off & for /f ""tokens=2"" %q in ('ping -n
1 -a " & sIP & "^|find /i ""pinging""') do echo %q"
Set oShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = oShell.Exec(sCommand)
sOutput = sOutput & oExec.StdOut.ReadAll
Set oExec = Nothing
Set oShell = NOthing
Response.WRite sOutput
%>
