Getting the IP Address of a Remote Socket Endpoint
How do I determine the remote IP Address of a connected socket?
I have a RemoteEndPoint object I can access and well as its AddressFamily member.
How do I utilize these to find the ip address?
Thanks!
Currently trying
IPAddress.Parse( testSocket.Address.Address.ToString() ).ToString();
and getting 1.0.0.127 instead of 127.0.0.1 for localhost end points. Is this normal?

You can then call the IPEndPoint..::.Address method to retrieve the remote IPAddress, and the IPEndPoint..::.Port method to retrieve the remote port number.
More from the link (fixed up alot heh):
Socket s;
IPEndPoint remoteIpEndPoint = s.RemoteEndPoint as IPEndPoint;
IPEndPoint localIpEndPoint = s.LocalEndPoint as IPEndPoint;
if (remoteIpEndPoint != null)
{
// Using the RemoteEndPoint property.
Console.WriteLine("I am connected to " + remoteIpEndPoint.Address + " on port number " + remoteIpEndPoint.Port);
}
if (localIpEndPoint != null)
{
// Using the LocalEndPoint property.
Console.WriteLine("My local IpAddress is " + localIpEndPoint.Address + " connected on port number " + localIpEndPoint.Port);
}
string ip = ((IPEndPoint)(testsocket.RemoteEndPoint)).Address.ToString();
