Why are you casting against ServletContext?
HttpServletReq should be enough.
com.sun.faces. is code from the RI, shipped under the sun ;-)

Hello,
in a bean, how can I extract the IP adress of a user?
I tried
HttpServletRequest request =
(HttpServletRequest)((ServletContext)
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest());
String IP = request.getRemoteHost();
but whatever I did I got
java.lang.ClassCastException:
com.sun.faces.context.MyHttpServletRequestWrapper
Any ideas? Thanks a lot... Hans
