I have been using the Guestbook with the admin and delete the spam. I sometimes block the IP addresses if they are from known spam spewers and become annoying; however, lately the IP addresses being displayed in the log look like: 216-31-225-6.static-ip.telepacific.net 198.235.14.30 ip-72-55-188-250.static.privatedns.com 82.173.92.64.static.reverse.ltdomains.com 198.65.122.125 ns.km10329.keymachine.de 41.220.227.2 mailer2.mtvi.com cpe-024-168-247-224.sc.res.rr.com ns.km10329.keymachine.de 72.52.96.51 mailer2.mtvi.com 151.11.232.92 74.223.57.126.nw.nuvox.net 89-149-241-118.internetserviceteam.com www.macs.net host99.190-139-105.telecom.net.ar 89-149-227-238.internetserviceteam.com (I modified the script so that it will list only IP addresses to make it easier to copy them to the banned list.) Is there some reason that $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR} picks up this syntax? Or is it a spam technique? Thanks! |

If you're sure you're looking at REMOTE_ADDR, and it's not simply an IP
address, this would be a question for your hosting operator, not for us.

OK. I found it. I am using Guestbook.pl,v 1.52 and it uses POSIX. There are two places where I replaced "my $remote = remote_host();" with "my $remote = $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR};". Now I get a normal IP address which I can use in the banned list.
Then I tried using my $remote = remote_addr(); and that seems to work also with POSIX.
