AntiOnline IP locator

... the ip locator service at http://www.antionline.com/tools-and-toys/ip-locate/ is just great? Anyone know how can I obtain the same database info? I'd very much like to be able to list where our visitors come from, something like this:

ip 111.111.111.111 Texas, U.S.A
ip 222.222.222.222 London, U.K

now I have something like this:

ip 111.111.111.111 <link to www.samspade.org?ip=111.111.111.111> ...which must be manually pushed to reveal the country... :-(

try some of the others http://www.google.com/search?q=ip+locator

or build one yourself..

step one: download a DB: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/split/ripe.db.inetnum.gz (54 MB !!)
step two, select language (if you'd go with perl like most CGI designers do, get IP::Country http://search.cpan.org/search?query=...untry&mode=all )
step three bind the IP to the database..

there ya go..

great, thanks!!!! I'll give it a go!!

Yes, it's had accuracy problems for some time, so we just took the link down...eventually we'll spend some time working on it and get it back up to speed.
Thanks,

It hasn't work right in a while. If your looking for a good trace program check out Neotrace - (as recommeded by MsM)


Cheers:

I would imagine it's only as good as your gateway location and where you are beind your company security. No matter where you are on my wide area network you will show up as the location of the internet gateway even if your in California. Alot of admins are now falsifying their recorded address and telephone numbers accociated with the physical network location.

Though you can just lie about your ip through a web proxy like pureprivacy.com.

...got everything into my db now, but the contrycodes are still two letters. I use ASp.net, so Perl/CGI examples is not really an option for me.... :-) All I need is a table with GB = 'Great Britain', anyone know where I can find one???

nroen, that's easy..

same ftp ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes.txt

here................... ;)

thanks guys!!! I browsed the ripe ftp, but I obviously missed that file.... :-) Thanks again!!

The AO IP locator is pretty poor - it can't even track me to the correct country...

I don't use a proxy server - and the only one I have ever used in the past has been on my local network and therefore in the same geographical location. My ISP is based in the UK as well, as most other IP locators can assertain. The AO one is past its sell by date.

hi again, I'm pretty much stuck I'm afraid.

I'm nearly there,

SELECT top 50 IL.Logtime, IL.ClientHost,
( SELECT top 1 I.Owner
FROM [InternetAddresses].[dbo].[IPranges] I
WHERE (IL.ClientHost BETWEEN i.IPstart AND i.IPend)
)
as Owner FROM inetlog IL

inetlog is the log directly from IIS, IPranges is the output from the RIPE db.

Unfortunately, all ip's must be in the format of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for SQL between-statement to work. I'm using ASP.Net, but even running some sort of perl script outside SQL would just kill my server I guess. So comparing must be done in SQL. (SQL Server 2000/P3-1133/512MB)

Also, there are situations where some overlapp, for instance:

A: 111.22.33.44-111.24.255.255
B: 111.23.11.11-111.23.222.222

or something like this, yielding two (or more) valid answers if you use the 'between' operator. The smallest intervall of these would be correct, so I can test for that later I guess.


Another problem is that RIPE doesn't seem to have all the ip-ranges??? I stilll get quite a lot of NULL's, so it seems I'm missing some adresses.....

Hmmm, can any of ya'll get the IP Locator page to come up?
Mine isn't working.

Where on AntiOnline is the link to the IP Locator? Maybe I have a wrong link?
I remember the link to it used to under "Tools & Toys" on the right top side. Now I don't see it. Where is it on the front page? lol!

Looks similar to Xtraceroute Graphics.Also it gave me a town i never heard of when i tested my ip.Though it did get the right state. lol

i tried to find the location of an IP through AO IP locator it gave the result in Milton,Australia but when i used it through NeoTrace Express it showed the location of the IP as Delhi

We took the link to the "tools and toys" section out of the site navigation some time ago because we realized that some of the apps listed there were buggy. Since we're not publicizing those links at the moment, I don't believe those apps (including the IP locator) are going to be fixed in the near future.

running a tracert in command prompt will get you better results.
