method 1:
Dim strHostName As String = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()
Dim clientIPAddress As String = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString()
method 2:
Dim k As String = Request.ServerVariables("remote_addr")

How get user location using user IP address using asp.net?
I am trying to fetch the IP address using this:-
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string ClientIP;
ClientIP = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;
Label1.Text = ClientIP;
}
This code outputs 127.0.0.1.
And the code below displays nothing!
string ClientIP;
ClientIP = HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
Label1.Text = ClientIP;
How do I fetch the IP address? The REAL IP address of a user?
[EDIT]
I don't want EXACT location BTW. I need to know the country and then redirect the user to a webpage accordingly.
I used following methods
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"]
Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_HOST"]
Request.UserHostAddress
Request.UserHostName
All the above are returning "127.0.0.1", not the actual IP.
The below one returns null.
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"]
Below one always returns where the application is hosted/running, not the client's IP address.
string strHostName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName();
string clientIPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses(strHostName).GetValue(0).ToString();

In a controller action of a CastleMVC application, how can I get the user's IP Address?
I think in asp.net mvc it would be Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"], but I can't find an equivalent in Castle.
(I am aware of potential proxy issue's etc, the address that is reported in the request is fine)
This is the current architechture and this is the question I have: Current architechture: We have an intranet application. No one accesses from outside the firewall. It's pretty simple architechture. We have a webservice and WebUI. The Web UI calls the webmethods of the webservice. So far so good. It works fine. Both webservice and WebUI runs under the context of the same service account (non human user account) that we created. The security is a role based security. If a user is a specific AD group, he can access with web UI. On the webui and webservice we have "Integrated windows authentication".
Code:
<authorization>
<allow roles="MycompanyApr-DataWriters"/>
</authorization>
So all the users and the service account that runs this webservice are in this AD group Apr-DataWriters. When a user launches this webUI, I want to find out either his box number of IP address of this box and datetime stamp. How can i get that information.

Somebody suggested that I should run a query. If you know the user name accessing the page, surely you can take that information, insert it into a query to find out the email address of the user accessing the page. Sounds great but don't have a clue how to do it.
Is it possible for a user to recover their password by entering their e-mail address alone?
Right now I am using the PasswordRecovery control, and i have security questions disabled. So all the user has to do is put their User Name, and hit submit, then their password is e-mailed to them.
But, a lot of my users forget their User Name, so right below I have a User Name recover section. The user inputs their e-mail address, and their corresponding user name shows up.
I would like to simplify this and just require the user's e-mail address to provide them their user name AND password.
I have been searching since some days for the best approach one can have in order to allow an authenticated user to change his/her email address.
This is the code I have but apparently it doesn't work and it doesnt even gives a error. The application seems to ignore it:
Change email address:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br />
<asp:Button ID="changemailbtn" runat="server" Text="Button" />
<asp:Label ID="lblErrors" runat="server" EnableViewState="False"

I'm building an ASP.NET MVC 2 site, where I want to have users verify their email address after they register.
I want to send an email to the address with a link that the user can click to verify their email, and then handle the clicking of that link (the link will contain a specific id, of course).
Of course, this is easy to manually implement, but is there anything already built in to ASP.NET that has such a function?

I am creating a "Request for Quote" web form for my company so that when user enters his:
name,address,email,phone etc fields and clicks the submit button,all the data of the webform should be sent to my email address.
I am using an email address as my "username" for Login. When a user logs in the User object that is created has the Email address as the name which is incorrect. The actual name is another field in the DB. How do I login and authenticate against the email address and then load the correct name in the User object?

Is it possible to use the PasswordRecovery control to recover a password using the email address instead of the user name?
Ideally I'd like to have the PasswordRecovery control allow users to enter their email address instead of their user name and then proceed to answer the security question.
