by CGI, i'm assuming you mean PERL? you can write CGIs in lots of languages.
client IP addresses are one of a number of environmental variables exposed
by the client web browser to the server. the environmental variable is
REMOTE_ADDR. that's not CF-specific, but true for PERL, ASP, PHP, etc.
for example, something like <%= Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") %>
gets you the IP in ASP.

Subject: OT: getting IP Address w/o cf
I have a client who has a site that is on unix (eww) and am needing to know
a way to get a user's ip address. I know how to do it with cold fusion, but
don't know how to with CGI or FrontPage. They have FrontPage 2000 server on
their web server. Any ideas?
