Hi All,

It appears that leopard server is now working to standards as  
$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; returns the expected value.

I've did all my testing for a new site on a tiger server, using  
$_SERVER["HTTP_PC_REMOTE_ADDR"]; and it broke when I migrated it to my  
client's new Leopard server.

The conditional mentioned by Kevin and Leo would have got around this  
if I'd seen it before I struck the problem!

Regards

Michael Ward
