Note Submitter: anonymous ---- to respond to the anonymous post bellow (see -> http://fr.php.net/manual/fr/function.gethostbyaddr.php#88920) stock addr is only usefull on an admin interface it's right but maybe for tests can you use a function like this to stop it, or if we have a so rare but existing stolen ip: function test_addr($Vip) { $addr = gethostbyaddr($Vip); return $addr; } $start_addr = microtime(); $addr = empty(test($Vip)) && microtime()-$start_addr > '500' ? '' : gethostbyaddr($Vip); $user_addr = empty($addr) ? 'unknown' : substr($addr,strlen($Vip)+'1',strlen($addr)); in any case stock it can be usefull in the future...
