Are nbstat and getmac for the lan or can you use them to get
client MAC across a http session outside the local lan?
I think the orig poster was asking how to use MAC as a security
check for any client accessing a page ... I assumed in my previous
answer that meant including clients not on the lan the server
running CFAS is on.
