Is it possible to find the IP address of a machine using a proxy?

what do you mean, Terry?

you mean automatic proxy detection?

Do you mean this ?:

Terry's machine ---- ( internet ) ---> proxy machine ---> target 
machine
where the target machine is the ip you want.

I am supposing a remote machine has connected to a service of yours, 
and you want to know if you can inspect the port in such a way as 
to obtain the ip of the remote machine, even if it is behind a proxy.

I'm looking for the the ip of my wireless router.  I know it manually, 
but is their a way to find it automagically?

proxy isn't correct

gateway

dhcp

well, my wireless router assigns an internal IP 192.168.1.100 (for 
example), and if I do a get-modes udp:// 'interfaces I get..

addr: 127.0.0.1
netmask: 255.0.0.0
broadcast: none
dest-addr: none
flags: [multicast loopback]
name: "if65540"
addr: 192.168.1.100
netmask: 255.255.255.0
broadcast: 192.168.1.255
dest-addr: none
flags: [broadcast multicast]

Nothing in there that I can send to you, that will allow you to find 
me.. so how do i determine (via Rebol) the IP address assigned to 
the router?

Not sure that this can even be determined with Rebol.. Probably need 
to do a workaround.. send a http request to a remote script, peel 
the IP from that, send it back?

Like this.. 

getIP: read http://whatismyip.com
parse getIP [thru "displaycopy('" copy myIP to "'"]

tried IP chicken.. seems slower.

http://www.ipchicken.com/

Maybe I should put that into a view pane and enter it into the contest?

Hmm, too late to hide the source code huh? :)

http://www.compkarori.com/cgi-local/whatismyip.r

<ip> 203.79.110.37 </ip>

ip chicken is way slower

Yeah, local versions of that scattered around the world would be 
help with the speed..your's is too slow for me

I put a PHP version on my server... no need to parse.. 

myIP: read http://lonestar.tv/myip.php

That's in the eastern states somewhere (1and1)

Mine is in texas.

who do you use.. rackspace?

and what's up with that xml you have wrapping your output?

webxess.com, and I wrap in tags to make it parse more easily

My script checks for proxy ,and fetches the forwarded address.

Some of these scripts only give you the address of the proxy.

go and download Look @ Lan ... it si not further developed, but I 
use it often ...

there is no other way that to sequentially scan using ping ....

or some snmp tool, if your device suports it ...

the simplest way is to set your network card to DHCP mode, and try 
to obtain ip from your GW (router), of course if it has DHCP server 
running ...

This werks (cheap plug) Can use rebol to determine IP for LAN, and 
remote script for WAN... I've put a copy at http://squigglz.com/myip.php
and Im building a public name server using a squiggle to store and 
retrieve IP addresses.  ie: ~carl:ip~  will finish that off tomorrow

Need to build "Internet 2.0" concurrently with "Web 2.0" ;)

:-)

linux has /usr/sbin/traceroute www.rebol.com

would the router show up here? 


there are not only myip-services, but also dynamic ips. there you 
connect, they store your current ip and then its reachable by mywishname.dyndns.ws 
or such. more effort on dialin, but then you have a name.

dyndns would be fine, but how do I creaete a dyndns update client 
with Rebol?

My router can update dyndns automatically, but I need something that's 
mobile.

in fact, if you're geeky enough, you can load up a Linksys WRT54G 
(Under the hood the unit sports a 125MHz MIPS processor with 16MB 
of RAM.) with some serious Linux apps.

they have a website and there are some binaries. on linux i found 
a few in my distor, the second worked nearly automatic, after editing 
something. for windows i guess there is something more comfortable. 
binaries makes sense because they are in my login-script :) I guess 
windows could pop up browser too, as gui is closer coupled to scripting?

terry, yeah I tried loading the MIPS version of rebol onto my Linksys 
WAP54G access point, but it wouldn't run. :-)

but i dont know about mobile and automatically from rebol.

maybe ask Carl to recompile it :)

I think it could have great potential. the AP has a mountain of stats 
that can be read out to a webpage. Imagine piping that out through 
a rebol service to a View app...

how about a chat-server? i guess it uses low power and could be on 
24/7?

easily, as long as you don't store stuff on it

mine are always on. I use them as antenna bridges
