Just a thought...

If you are directly accessing your web site from an internal workstation (ie
another computer on your internal network), all you log is the IP of the
workstation.

If you are accessing your web site internally via your domain name or the
WAN IP address that is mapped (Linksys calls it DMZ) to your server, all
you'll get is your routers gateway IP.  Not sure why.

To get a visitor's IP loggged, you need to go outside.  A dialup connection
works well.  A friends house is just as good.  There's always the library.
Does make testing cumbersome.

Much luck,
Charles
my app: Win98SE, Xitami 2.5b4, Linksys router on cable
