    Remote User & IP Address...

On our company intranet I have a form that collects
information one of wich being the Remote User.  However
when the form is submitted the remote user comes over as
an IP address i.e.  112.22.222.11.  Is there a way to tie
in the computer users actual name with the IP address that
it is assigned to, and have it spit out the name rather
than the IP address?  I imagine that this is something
that needs to be done in IIS directly, but not too sure.

Do you go through a proxy server to connect to your intranet site?  If so,
then the web server is seeing the proxy's address, not the clients.

If this is the case, you'll probably need to work some JavaScript magic to
grab the client's IP (since it's visible on the client side) and submit it
along with your form in a hidden field.  A simple Google search should turn
up what you need.
