Thanks; at least I know I'm not trying to re-invent the wheel here. I'll 
have to dig in deeper in code. At some point the source IP is getting 
replaced by "any". I was able to verify that remoted was getting the actual 
source IP address (which is should), but I have yet to determine where it 
is being lost...just not that familiar with the codebase yet.
