You can give the users the oportunity to turn ip check on (a checkbox in the login form). There is also a header that is set by many proxies to the ip address of the client, but I don't remember its name (maybe (X-)Forwarded-For) Haseeb Iqbal wrote:
i just want to figure out a way by which i can stop session theft.i thought if i can get something from user end that is unique for that user.for e.g. his/her IP .but it will not work when they are behind firewall.they will be assigned same IP.is there a way for me to get the IP (e.g.202.202.202.202 thats just an e.g. ) plus computer ip(192.168.0.1 e.g.) i saw once a java chat server do this.if we can do this then it will help us (SOMEWHAT). if anyone has better suggestion just let me know Haseeb
