Hi, just a quick query - i hope.

I have tried looking for code through google, but im not sure what im looking for. My mate is trying to obtain a mac address from a local machine in C++.

Any ideas how to do this? Im sure there is a few lines of code somewhere that can do it.

Thanks Peeps

windows or *nix?

if windows take a look at http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/I-N/network/ne...ticle.php/c5451

and also http://www.codeproject.com/internet/getmac.asp

Wow, compare the C# and C++ code in that example and you really see why people rave about .NET

Cool, ill get my mate to check it out!

Cheers
