Website local/remote login

[Bonzol]

vb.net 1.1 web application

Hello all,

I am just making a website,, and what I'm trying to do is..

if a user trys to view the site remotely,, like in Japan or something
they will get sent to a certain page,, but if a user views the site on
the local network to send them to a differnt page to the remote user.

Anyone got any suggestions on how to do this?

I was thinking I could just get the IP address of the user and if it
begins with 192.168 send them somewhere accordingly. But I cannot find
a way to get the IP address of someone who uses the site.

Any help would be greatly apprecaited

Thanx in advance

Yes, the IP address will do... you can retrieve the client IP via the
HTTP Headers:

REMOTE_ADDR will give you the client IP.

However, if there are firewalls, etc between you and the client, the IP
may not be 100% correct.

If you need more accurate detection (i.e. geolocation based) there are
products and components out there which can tell you roughly where an IP
address is located.
