Regarding IP addresses - 1/31/2005 11:12:20
For an IP address of say, 65.123.456.789..............
Which numbers in the string indicate the physical location of the server.
And is there a chart somewhere that translates the numbers to the actual city of origin of that IP address.
Couldn't find a clear answer thru Googling.
Thanks

You won't find an answer. No part of the IP address gives the physical/geographicla location of the machine.
I could take this PC now, with it's IP address, move to another country, and the IP address would stay the same, until I renew the IP address itself

Or you can trace it.

The standard practice is to use command prompt:
Start>>Run
Enter cmd if on 2k/XP/2k3
Enter command if on 9x/Me
Click ok
Enter the following:
ipconfig /all
That will give you the current IP address of the PC, if at all.

If you're behind a router you may only see your local IP settings tho...
In this case use trace route and the second address shown is the router.
Take care,
