I wrote this to save the IP address of the client that downloads it.
|
||
|
|
This was mostly done to overcome having a box on on dynamic IP address that I had to access from the outside world.
|

It's rather simple, if $save_to_file is set to TRUE the script will save the IP address and hostname to a file. Otherwise it'll just diplsay it in the web browser.
|
||
|
|
By default this file is called ipaddress.txt and is located in the same directory as the PHP script itself.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The best way to use this is to have the machine who's IP you're trying to keep track of download the script every few minutes.
|
||
|
|
You'll need to place the script itself on a webserver that is accessible (and preferably pretty reliable) to the cleint machine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simply add this to your cleint's crontab:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*/15 * * * * wget -O - -q -t 1 example.com/phpipaddress/index.php >/dev/null 2>&1
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can substitute wget for your favorite http client.
