hi all experts,

I am using Application Server 10, Database 10g, Oracle Developer Forms 10g ( NOT USING JDeveloper ).
I want to get Client IP address from a stored Procedure/Function, when using SYS_CONTEXT it returns App Server IP, WebUtil is, I have to use in Form but I want to write a stored procedure/function in DB and calling it from Form to get Client's IP address, how I can do it?? please help with an example.

thanks and regards.

first, thanks for a very prompt reply Smile

secondly, I already mentioned about SYS_CONTEXT, its not working as I need, and for UTL_INADDR.GET_HOST_ADDRESS its working same as SYS_CONTEXT, so problem not solved...

third, I will check the links you have provided, with much thanks.

regards.

It does, but - when executed in Forms (@oralover2006 wants to use it in Forms) - it returns IP address of the Forms Server, not client IP address.

To the database the Forms Server server is the client. That's the only client the database is able to see.

The only technical possible solution is the solution you "don't want".
