Tracing ones ip address

Is there a law against this? Or any legal implications?

thanks


its perfectly allowed, but not of a great deal of use. All you can do is possibly find out the persons ISP, and sometimes the area they are in, but nothing anywhere near a specific address.
 
"Tracing ones ip address" actually looks like he means looking up what address he's connecting from?
Easiest way to do this is check your routers config page as should tell you or if you are a modem with a direct connection get a command window up (start, run, type "cmd") and enter ipconfig (ipconfig /all for more details).
Tracing someone elses ip address as above is VERY tricky and in most cases wont help you find out who/where they are.
