Hi!
The server where the php-script is located is Apache/1.3.33. (Shared host)
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.0.4

When I test the script locally on my apache-installation, everything works
fine. But when I upload it to the server I use, the strange error occour;
the IP-address is only returned from time to time, and not always.
It also seems that when the server is quite busy, the problem increases.

I don't have a clue how to solve this...
