Occasionally people have asked how to get an their externally accessable
ip# when they are behind a router, or when they have a dynamic ip#. This
has been working well for me for a while now, and i run it on several http
hosts with no problems. It's php, not Eu.
<?
echo getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
?>
Use your favorite method to http to this file.php on your remote shell, it
returns your ip# that everyone sees you as, you use it. Simple.

And if you want to know your local IP address as well,
use this:
echo $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]; // same as Kat's one
echo $_SERVER[HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR]; // local address
