get IP address of the "consumer" of web service

Hi,

Is there a way to get the IP address of a machine consuming a web service?
Ideally, I would like to check an IP address of an incoming connection and then check to see that it is in a table before allowing the client access to the web service. (perhaps an initial service would determine the IP, verify it, then turn on the main web service)

Thanks!

Thanks,  
for some silly reason, I was making this way more complicated than it had to be, but a web service really just uses HTTP for like any typical web page (I should really get more sleep, or more brains :)
