You will need to access the SOAPContext for the request. This allows you to access the HttpServletRequest, on which the getRemoteAddr or getRemoteHost method will give you what you need.
Does your service use the RPC or messaging API? For the messaging API, you get the SOAPContext for the request passed into your service method. For the RPC API, you need to use a trick: add SOAPContext as the first parameter to your method. For example, if your method is String foo(String bar, int baz) change it to String foo(SOAPContext req, String bar, int baz) Now that you have the SOAPContext, use the getProperty method with the parameter Constants.BAG_HTTPSERVLETREQUEST, i.e. HttpServletRequest hsr = req.getProperty(Constants.BAG_HTTPSERVLETREQUEST); This is documented in the User Guide (http://ws.apache.org/soap/docs/guide/migration.html).
