Is there a way Informix can return the port number of the client it uses to talk
to for a connection. We need this to identify some connections amongst hundreds
of connection from iplanet server which uses the same user name. Since client
port number is always unique,it can be used to map with the session id of informix.

TIA.

Hmmmm...
Can you map client side ports to iPlanet pool of connections?
You can get session id using DBINFO() on the client. Isn't this more useful?

My point is: even if you can map a client port to a session id, what
will you take out of it? Nothing as far as I imagine, unless you can map
client ports to iPlanet activity...
