Torsten, In the browser getRemoteAddr, getRemoteHost and getRemoteUser can be used to retrieve user session information.
In Windows you can run ipconfig.exe, capture the output with $PROCESS $, and then parse out the IP address. I have been doing this here for about 1.5 years and it works fine. In the next release (complete rewrite) of our custom help desk app I plan to implement an idea I got from Carey last week - copy a file that does what you need to the client pc. The file will be a VB.Net console app that will be copied only if the client pc does not already have the file. The file will be only about 10kb in size and will run much faster than ipconfig.exe. HTH.

(So no DB table to look at.) You will also likely have to make the API call as an ARS Administrator user too. Quoting form the API pdf: " Information about the current user can be retrieved by all users. Access to information about other users is limited to users with AR System administrator privileges only.

Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence.
