Hello,

I use the asio boost library for network traffic. Is there a way to get the IP address of a client directly if the server receives data over a socket object, so that the IP address has not to be sent within the data.
Normally this should be possible, since TCP pakets holds the ip address of receiver and sender in the header information. But how can I get these header information with the asio library?

Best Regards, Cyraid
