getting ip in service using tcp connection

RevengerPT · 03-24-2008, 08:20 AM

Hi there. I'm building a small chat in which there is a main server that hosts a service, and there are many clients. Each client hosts a service too, so it can get any messages sent by other clients, through a call done by the server.

But I have a little problem. I need to know every client IP. I searched a lot, and I found it to be easier using HttpChannel, where I can just use something like:

Code:

string clientAddress = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;

This is great as I can do it inside the service.

But I'm using a TcpChannel as a connection.

Code:

namespace Server
{
    class Server
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            TcpChannel channel = new TcpChannel(8086);
            ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, true);

            RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(
                typeof(ServerService),
                "server",
                WellKnownObjectMode.Singleton);

            System.Console.WriteLine("press <enter> to quit...");

            System.Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

How can I, inside of the ServerService, get the client IP?

Thanks in advance.

My best regards.
