As long as you know how to save a variable in a database,
the simplest way to do this in php is something like:

//Test if it is a shared client if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'])){ $ip=$_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']; //Is it a proxy address }elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])){ $ip=$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']; }else{ $ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; } //The value of $ip at this point would look something like: "192.0.34.166"
