How can I get the user's IP? [closed]

Asked by

Here is what I have so far:

game.ChildAdded:connect(function(child)
    if child:IsA('NetworkServer') then
        child.IncommingConnection:connect(function(IP, replicator)
            Instance.new('StringValue', game.Workspace).Name = IP
            print(IP)
        end)
    end
end)

But it returns in the output window (on 1 player server test):

19:06:01.886 - Started network server on 192.168.56.1|53640
19:06:01.886 - Started network server on 10.0.0.2|53640

It is impossible, and for good reason.

Was it previously possible? Because I remember when IP bans were possible. GShocked 150 — 9y

Previously, yes. Now it is not. TickerOfTime 70 — 9y

Knowing a players IP isn't what ROBLOX would want people to be able to do. alphawolvess 1784 — 9y

Knowing an IP address allows things like DoS or DDoS attacks, GeoIP location tracks, and various other bad things. TickerOfTime 70 — 9y
