I use this code to store the IP addresse:
<?php
$IP = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$query = "update mytable set ipaddr=inet_aton('$IP') where <some code>";
mysql_query ($query);
?>
When I do a 'select inet_ntoa(ipaddr) from mytable' most of the ip-addesses
shows up correctly, but one showed up as "127.255.255.255", which is
meaningless. Comparing to the log, the IP-address was 195.x.x.x
Is the $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] safe to use? Can it be something else that
the actual source of the http request to my server?
