<p>How can I find the public facing IP for my net work in Python?</p>

This will fetch your remote IP address
```
```
import urllib
ip = urllib.urlopen('http://automation.whatismyip.com/n09230945.asp').read()
```
```
If you don't want to rely on someone else, then just upload something like this PHP script:
```
```
<?php echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?>
```
```
and change the URL in the Python or if you prefer ASP:
```
```
<%
Dim UserIPAddress
UserIPAddress = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
%>
```
```
Note: I don't know ASP, but I figured it might be useful to have here so I googled.
