    Do you go through a proxy server to connect to your intranet site? If so,
    then the web server is seeing the proxy's address, not the clients.

    If this is the case, you'll probably need to work some JavaScript magic to
    grab the client's IP (since it's visible on the client side) and submit it
    along with your form in a hidden field. A simple Google search should turn
    up what you need.
