how to get a remote client's IP?
-
Suppose a client connected with a remote DCOM component by creating its instance and then calling its methods, can the component know where the client comes from, or what IP the client has? If can, how? And when firewall exists in the client side, how is the situation then? Thanks a lot!

hello, As far as i know the basic design of COM/DCOM is that both client and server should be unaware of the other and as i suppose COM doesnt give any direct interface/method for getting IP address (though it does these things internally). i also think that there wont be any need for a COM component to trace the client.
