What did I do wrong, when the log-files don´t show the IP, like:

admin logged on at 22:02:38 on 20-Feb-1999 from


Thanks for any idea.

REMOTE_ADDR : 192.55.192.10
REMOTE_PORT : 12345T
hat´s what I found. It´s an Apache.
Do I have to change REMOTE_HOST into REMOTE_ADDR

THanks.

Hi pg

Set the debug mode on and look for

$ENV{'REMOTE_HOST'}

the REMOTE_HOST variable. That is what the logon script uses to put the data in the log file. If it is empty or it doesn´t exist then your server does not know where the user is coming from (this is a global variable set by the server itself). Talk to your ISP.

It's Apache?! Hmm, I was sure Apache would put the IP number in to REMOTE_HOST if it couldn't figure out the domain name. Strange.

In any case, yes, just change REMOTE_HOST to REMOTE_ADDR and you should be fine.

Cheers,

Yes, it works with REMOTE_ADDR.
Thanks

Oops. Big excuse.
REMOTE_ADDR shows the own IP of the Server the db.cgi works on.
