Q.
In Novell NetBasic 6.0, is it possible to write a "netbasic CGI" that can get the IP address (99.99.99.99) of the caller user's computer? When I use "NET:Internet:Address" I only see the IPX address of my server.
A.
You can get it through environment variables. To do this, use the following to give you the IP address you want:
GetUser = DOC:Env:Get("REMOTE_USER")
GetUserAddress = DOC:Env:Get("REMOTE_ADDR")
