Try $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] instead of getenv()

Not sure it will be different, but it's what I use...

It's possible your httpd.conf User is [re-]setting the environment
variable REMOTE_ADDR -- which may or may not be how Apache transmits that
to PHP -- I dunno, really.

If that doesn't help, perhaps <?php phpinfo(); ?> will help you sort out
what's what.
