Hi Prashanth Refer to FAQs at apache soap How can I get the IP address of a client that is using my SOAP Service? If you add a SOAPContext Object as first Parameter in the signature of your SOAP-service java-method, a 'SOAPContext' Object is passed to your class, e.g.: .mymethod(SOAPContext inContext, String inString)
This SOAPContext object gives you access to the HttpSession, HttpRequest, HttpResponse (see java doc for details). So, your SOAP service method can get the servlet request out of the context object, and then call the getRemoteAddr() method on the service request object: import javax.servlet.http.*; .... HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest)soapCtx.getProperty(org.apache.soap.Constants.BAG_HTTPSE RVLETREQUEST); String remoteIPAddress = req.getRemoteAddr(); NOTE: this will only work where the client and server are both using the Apache SOAP libraries. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Prashanth Narayanan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 11:12 PM Subject: hostname of client machine? > hi all, > is there any way to find the hostname of the machine > that is making the request to a webservice? iam using > apache2.2 on iplanet 6.0sp4. > thanks, > prash. > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
