Hi,
What is the difference between HttpServletRequest.getServerName() and getRemoteHost()
The javadoc says:
-getServerName():Returns the host name of the server that received the request. For HTTP
servlets, same as the value of the CGI variable SERVER_NAME.
-getRemoteHost():Returns the fully qualified name of the client that sent the request.
If I am sending the request from the same machine as the webserver is, shouldn't they be the same?
I get my machine name for getServerName(), while a totally different machine address from getRemoteHost().
Am i missing something here?
