no - the MAC address is not part of any client cert - and it can't if you think about it.
You cannot easily obtain the MAC address from a client - not whithout having some piece of software on the client - just in case you plan to do any security related decisions based on that - don't. cheers, dominick ----------------------------- Dominick Baier, DevelopMentor http://www.leastprivilege.com -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of advanced .NET topics.
