It's usually polite to read some of the earlier posts to see if this has
been asked before. And it has, yesterday. See the thread
"get IP and even geographical region of IP ?" and you'll find answers to
what you just asked...

| True that is - sorry, I did'nt see that previous post...
Only problem: the http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl does'nt really give me
anything usefull and the http://ip-to-country.com/ only gives me contries,
I'd like something a little more specific. The
http://www.phpclasses.org/netgeoclass cant open right now - but I'll look
into that whenever it comes back-up...

| Further, it seems http://www.phpclasses.org/netgeoclass builds upon
http://www.caida.org/tools/utilities/netgeo/ which has a small remark:
"NOTE: NetGeo has not been actively maintained for several years, and this
will probably not change in the foreseeable future. As a result, there are
several known major issues affecting accuracy and service availability.
Please be warned that NetGeo may give wildly incorrect results, especially
for recently allocated or re-assigned IP addresses."

Right, however that is a problem of all IP location resolving services.
Often they rely on information that has changed or is not disclosed
accurately. An advantage of CAIDA services is that they are free and
provide much more geographic details than other that often are paid.
