You will need to add custom code in your Web services to log these details.
Check the HttpRequest class to see some of the details you can log.

hey eric I tried this and this is the output I get from my local machine and from other machines, why can't I get the REAL IP ADDRESS of the machine calling my web service.

HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables("REMOT E_ADDR")

<REMOTE_ADDR>127.0.0.1</REMOTE_ADDR>

Any ideas or suggestions as to how I can get the IP ADDRESS

thanks,

Are you calling the web service from your own machine? If so I'm not surprised you are seeing the loopback address. Also even with REMOTE_ADDR you may get the IP address of a proxy server and not the original client
