beginner question: local IP-Address

Guest · Apr 11, 2005

I looked in the help but I cannot find the method to retrieve the IP-Address
of the local machine in the code behind (not the client machine, wich I can
retrieve with Request.UserHostAddress, but the IP-Address of the server where
the code behind is running).
I checked IPAddress Class but this seems not to be the correct one.
Thank you for your help

You can do:

System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()).AddressList(0).ToString

Request.ServerVariables("LOCAL_ADDR")

would provide the server's IP address, too.

I'm not sure if this exactly what you want to do, but you can display the
account that an ASP.net page is exeuting by in Sub Page_Load
lblAccount.text = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name
Hope this helps.

That's not what he was looking for.

He was looking for "the IP Address of the
server where the code behind is running".

re:

lblAccount.text = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name

That should be
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()

I published this short file I wrote, which retrieves the
account name ASP.NET is running under, a few days ago.

Check it out...

-----------------
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Import NameSpace = System.Security.Principal %>
<script runat="server">
Sub Page_Load()
Dim tmp As String = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()
Label1.Text = tmp
End Sub
</script>
<html>
<head>
<title>WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" Runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Hi guys,

one more thing to talk about getting the local address.

doing this:
System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()).AddressList[0]

you get the correct ip

doing this way:

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

you get the 127.0.0.1, that´s not wrong, but doent help so much

I hope it helps. regards
