Does someone know a way to get the MAC (hardware) adress of the nic in a PC running an emulator connected (NS/VT or telnet) onto a HP3000 _from the HP3000 side_ ? I know how to get the IP adress of the PC and the Port due to variables set by the OS, but I would like to get the MAC adress (for security purpose). Please, don't suggest me to purchase a security software program, no funds are available for this task.
