Is it possible to record and view a persons i.p. address when they register? XOOPS v. 2.0.13.2

Re: Registered users I.P. Address

yes - but it's only as good as the information passed to you. It can be easily spoofed. Most folks who are sitting behind a corporate firewall or proxy may actually denote the IP as 192.168.x.x and I've seen 127.0.0.1 <- which is crap.

It's in the header and usually passed as HTTP_CLIENT_IP, however you have to look at HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR and REMOTE_ADDR to determine if you have some type of proxying going on.

I'm sorry, but I have no idea what your talking about. Could you talk to me as if I were stupid?
