(and a good way of debugging it is to have the code spit out which ip address it tried to use when it fails.) of course, then this code becomes dependent on whether or not the local php mirror is running behind squid. if it is, it needs to look at X-Forwarded-For before REMOTE_ADDR (and make sure to get only the most recent forwarded-for). if it is not running behind a local squid accelerator, it needs to ignore X-Forwarded-For, or it will be trying to look up internal addresses for those behind a proxy. jim
