I would like to get the user name and the remote machine (IP or FQDN) in a QAction.

I found SLProtocol.UserInfo property which allows my to retrieve the username of the user who triggered the QAction.
Is it possible to get the name of remote machine, also?

It seems that SLProtocol.SLNet.RawConnection.ClientComputerName deliveres the name of a DMA, instead of the client remote machine.

Hi Joerg, as far as I know this is not possible, but feel free to request this new feature on https://community.dataminer.services/feature-suggestions.

What would you like to do with the IP address of the client machine? Maybe there is another way to achieve the same.

Thanks Tom for you answer.

It is just for documentation reasons.
In my self written protocol driver I have a Write Parameter that is set via the DataMiner Web Services Interface.

The system that sets the parameter consists of two servers.
to be able to distinuish the servers it would be great to have either the IP or the hostname of the client.

The customer would like to know which of the servers sets the parameter.
