Problem
======

I placed this on my webpage:

echo $REMOTE_HOST . "," . $REMOTE_ADDR;

and all I get is the IP address but not the Hostname.

Solution
======

You're not doing anything wrong - hostname lookups are turned
off by default in BestHost setups - that DNS lookup can slow
your site down by 20% or more.

Try doing a gethostbyaddr() call on the contents of $REMOTE_ADDR;

Support
BestHost - - Circle Net, Inc.

I actually like Yahav`s code better, because most of the users already have IP detected and an assigned variable to it, so why to get it once more when you have it already, the getenv is too simple and has more need of playing around then gethostbyaddr();

Cheers!

I did make a Java applet to access the remote MySQL server. It works in local machine`s JBuilder environment, however, it couldn`t connect to the MySQL in the designated host machine with TCP/IP. The return infomation is as the following:

"can not connect to MySQL in HOSTNAME:3306. The MySQL is not installed or not running (java.security.AccessControlException)"

Please give some direction. If you can email to qingwei_f@yahoo.com, I`d more greatly appreciate it.
