accessing ip's of other clients

Added by filip szulczewski 754 days ago

I found this in the documentation:

By default, a client knows its own IP address only, and does not have access to the IP addresses of other clients on the server.

My question is:
How do i change the default setting? I need ip's of other clients to identify them.

hi filip,
there is no current server option to give a client access to other clients' ips. we plan to add that option when we implement server-side security. for now, a client can share its own ip with other clients by setting a new, custom shared attribute for the ip. for example,

var self:Client = reactor.getClientManager().self();
self.setAttribute("IP", self.getIP());

hope that helps,
colin

Hey Colin,
Thanks I'll give that a try.
