Hi Anne

I tried this on 9iR1

oracle:jupiter> sqlplus system/manager

SQL*Plus: Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production on Wed Jun 25 20:45:54 2003

Connected to:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production With the Partitioning option
JServer Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production

SQL> select sys_context('userenv','ip_address') ip,username,machine 2 from v$session
3 where sys_context('userenv','sessionid')=audsid;

USERNAME

MACHINE

SYSTEM
jupiter

SQL> connect system/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connected.
SQL> / IP

USERNAME

MACHINE

172.16.240.11
SYSTEM
jupiter

SQL> It looks like you need to use the service name when connecting to get the IP Address.

kind regards
Pete
