ASP.Net 2.0 Webservice and IP adress

[Bit Byte]

I am writing a little web service - and would like to use the IP adress
of the machine that sent the request (along with other data) as part of
my security checks.

Does anyone know how I may obtain the IP address ?

Request.ServerVariables ["REMOTE_ADDR"]

To pre-empt your next question, if the user is behind a proxy you get the
proxy address, there is no way to get the client's address.

As per Aidy's reply, there really is no 100% certain method of obtaining the
IP address...
