Retrieving the client's computer name

[KingRichard3]

In development (running off my PC) I was able to use this:

Dim strComputerName as String = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByAddress(Request.ServerVariables("Remote_Host")).HostName

in order to retrieve the client's computer name. It worked just fine when I was using my PC as the server and a co-worker's computer as the client, I could capture their (the co-worker's) computer's name.

But now I've deployed it onto a webserver - on the same network as my computer and that of my co-worker's - and now it doesn't work, anymore.

What do I need to do to get this code to work again?

Thanks!
Rick

I got it - this is the right code to use:

System.Net.Dns.GetHostByAddress(Request.UserHostAddress).HostName()
